Characteristics, distribution and geologic/terrain associations of small dome-like hills on VenusApproximately 22,000 small dome-like hills were recognized on the northern 20 percent of the surface of Venus imaged by Verera 15/16. These features were described as generally circular in planimetric outline, with a range in basal diameter from the effective resolution of the Venera images (1 to 2 km) up to 20 km. The General Characteristics, Dome Distribution and Terrain Unit and Geologic Feature Associations are discussed.
