Abstract Sinuous rilles are the most easily recognizable small volcanic features on the moon, which can provide information on volcanic history and evolution of the moon. Lunar orbiter laser altimeter (LOLA) data were used in this paper to supplement Chang'E CCD and lunar reconnaissance orbiter camera (LROC) images for making detailed observations of morphologic and topographic characteristics of sinuous rilles in Aristarchus region. Clementine images from three bands of the ultraviolet-visible camera were used to analyze the compositional properties of sinuous rille substrates below the pyroclastics. Topographic data lend support to the theory that sinuous rilles were formed by the thermal erosion of the basalt lava, the compositional property of sinuous rille substrates is the same, and the slope rather than the regional structural pattern is the dominant factor controlling the rille.
