==== Arden Corona ====
Arden Corona, present in the front hemisphere of Miranda, extends over approximately {{cvt|300|km}} from east to west. The other dimension, however, remains unknown because the terrain extended beyond the [[Terminator (solar)|terminator]] (on the hemisphere plunged into night) when ''Voyager 2'' photographed it. The outer margin of this corona forms parallel and dark bands which surround in gentle curves a more clearly rectangular core at least {{cvt|100|km}} wide. The overall effect has been described as an ovoid of lines.{{sfn|Smith|1986|p=59}} The interior and belt of Arden show very different morphologies. The interior topography appears regular and soft. It is also characterized by a mottled pattern resulting from large patches of relatively bright material scattered over a generally dark surface. The stratigraphic relationship between the light and dark marks could not be determined from the images provided by ''Voyager 2''. The area at the margin of Arden is characterized by concentric albedo bands which extend from the western end of the crown where they intersect crateriform terrain (near 40° longitude) and on the side east, where they extend beyond the, in the northern hemisphere (near 110° longitude).<ref name=Plescia1987_444>{{harvsp|J. B. Plescia|1987|p=444|id=Plescia1987}}</ref> The contrasting albedo bands are composed of outer fault scarp faces.<ref name=Plescia1987_444/> This succession of escarpments gradually pushes the land into a deep hollow along the border between Arden and the crateriform terrain called Mantua Regio.<ref name=Plescia1987_444/> Arden was formed during a geological episode which preceded the formation of Inverness but which is contemporary with the formation of Elsinore.<ref name=Plescia1987_442/>
