Overview

• Cornell-led research used bistatic radar data from Cassini to study Titan's polar seas.
• Hydrocarbon seas show varying compositions, with pure methane rivers mixing into ethane-rich seas.
• Surface waves were generally small, but coastal areas showed higher roughness indicating tidal currents.
• The study provides insights into Titan's meteorological models, suggesting methane-dominated precipitation.
• Ongoing analysis of Cassini's data aims to uncover further details about Titan's unique environment.
