Editing Titan (moon) (section)

=== Impact craters ===
Titan's surface has comparatively few impact craters, with erosion, tectonics, and cryovolcanism possibly working to erase them over time.<ref name="puzzling geologic"/> Compared to the craters of similarly sized and structured Ganymede and Callisto, those of Titan are much shallower. Many have dark floors of sediment; geomorphological analysis of impact craters largely suggests that erosion and burial are the primary mechanisms of crater modification.<ref name="Hedgepeth2020">{{cite journal |last1=Hedgepeth |first1=Joshua E. |display-authors=et al. |title=Titan's impact crater population after Cassini |date=July 2020 |journal=Icarus |volume=344 |doi=10.1016/j.icarus.2020.113664 |bibcode=2020Icar..34413664H }}</ref>{{rp|2}} Titan's craters are also not evenly distributed, as the polar regions are almost devoid of any identified craters whilst the majority are located in the equatorial dune fields. This inequality may be the result of oceans that once occupied Titan's poles, polar sediment deposition by past rainfall, or increased rates of erosion in the polar regions.<ref name="Lopes2019"/>{{rp|19}}
