    Venus banded terrain: Evaluation of tectonic models for the origin of banding (1984)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-04-06
    Description: A tectonic orgin for Venus banded terrain is consistent with band spacing. Both compressional (folding) and extensional models for band formation can fit present observations. Band spacing cannot distinguish among scenarios for global heat loss and for the origin of highland terrain. Tectonic models for band formation indicate that the surface brittle layer in the venus highlands is no more than a few kilometers thick.

    Elysium Region, Mars: Characterization of tectonic features (1984)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-04-06
    Description: In this paper the tectonic features of the Elysium region are identified and characterized. Identification of features was made using USGS controlled photomosaics (Elysium quadrangle, and portions of Amenthes and Cebrenia quadrangles); Viking Orbiter photographic data were used in individual cases to assist in identification. The positions and orientations of tectonic features can then be used, in conjunction with estimates of the mass of the volcanic load obtained from gravity modelling, to constrain the thickness of the elastic lithosphere in the region.

    Tracer transport by the diabatic circulation deduced from satellite observations (1986)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: Nimbus-7 sensor data were used to track the diabatic circulation in the stratosphere to study the advective transport of CH4 and N2O as tracer species. Advective transport by the mean circulation was found to be a function of the temperature field and associated deviations from radiative equilibrium. A photochemical model was applied to account for the disappearance of the tracer species from the stratosphere. Comparisons between the SAMS data and modeling on the basis of the chemical loss rates of the tracers and the LIMS circulation data showed that the model predictions underestimated the resident abundances, although the global distributions and circulations exhibited a good match.

    Topography of Venus and earth - A test for the presence of plate tectonics (1981)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: Comparisons of earth and Venus topography by use of Pioneer/Venus radar altimetry are examined. Approximately 93% of the Venus surface has been mapped with a horizontal resolution of 200 km and a vertical resolution of 200 m. Tectonic troughs have been indicated in plains regions which cover 65% of Venus, and hypsometric comparisons between the two planets' elevation distributions revealed that while the earth has a bimodal height distribution, Venus displays a unimodal configuration, with 60% of the planet surface within 500 m of the modal planet radius. The effects of mapping the earth at the same resolution as the Venus observations were explored. Continents and oceans were apparent, and although folded mountains appeared as high spots, no indications of tectonic activity were discernible. A NASA Venus Orbiting Imaging radar is outlined, which is designed to detect volcanoes, folded mountain ranges, craters, and faults, and thereby allow definition of possible plate-tectonic activity on Venus.

    Magellan: Preliminary description of Venus surface geologic units (1991)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-08-31
    Description: Observations from approximately one-half of the Magellan nominal eight-month mission to map Venus are summarized. Preliminary compilation of initial geologic observations of the planet reveals a surface dominated by plains that are characterized by extensive and intensive volcanism and tectonic deformation. Four broad categories of units have been identified: plains units, linear belts, surficial units, and terrain units.

    Martian surface physical properties to be derived by radar altimeter on the Mars observer spacecraft (1987)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-08-31
    Description: The potential is described of a candidate Mars Observer altimeter for determining dielectric properties of Mars regolith. It is pointed out that it is straightforward to use the time between altimeter pulse trains for passive radiometry (hence dielectric properties) and roughness can be derived. Given the mission plan the whole surface can be mapped at least three times, yielding data on seasonal variability.

    Rift systems on Venus: An assessment of mechanical and thermal models (1985)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: The formation and distribution of major tectonic features on Venus are closely linked to the dominant mechanism of lithospheric heat loss. Among the most spectacular and extensive of the major tectonic features on Venus are the Chasmata, deep linear valleys generally interpreted to be the products of lithospheric extension and rifting. Systems of chasmata and related features can be traced along several tectonic zones up to 20,000 km in linear extent. Mechanical and thermal models for terrestrial continental-rifting are applied to the rift systems of Venus. The models are tested against known topographic and tectonic characteristics of Venus chasmata as well as independent information on the physical properties of the Venus crust and lithosphere.

    Venus Chasmata: A Lithospheric Stretching Model (1985)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-10-08
    Description: An outstanding problem for Venus is the characterization of its style of global tectonics, an issue intimately related to the dominant mechanism of lithospheric heat loss. Among the most spectacular and extensive of the major tectonic features on Venus are the chasmata, deep linear valleys generally interpreted to be the products of lithospheric extension and rifting. Systems of chasmata and related features can be traced along several tectonic zones up to 20,000 km in linear extent. A lithospheric stretching model was developed to explain the topographic characteristics of Venus chasmata and to constrain the physical properties of the Venus crust and lithosphere.

    Elysium Region, Mars: Tests of Lithospheric Loading Models for the Formation of Tectonic Features (1985)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-10-09
    Description: In an effort to constrain the tectonic history and mechanical properties of the lithosphere in the Elysium province, the stress fields predicted by different models are compared to the observed tectonic features of the region. The models are all products of volcanic loading of the Martian lithosphere, but at three different scales: global (Tharsis), regional (Elysium Planitia), and local (individual shields). Conclusions: The concentric graben surrounding Elysium Mons can be ascribed to the flexural response of an approximately 50-km-thick elastic lithosphere to loading by the volcano. No tectonic evidence for the support of larger-scale Elysium Planitia volcanic units by lithospheric flexure. The quasi-global loading of the Tharsis rise appears to have produced identifiable tectonic effects in the Elysium region.
