Free air gravity anomaly harmonic coefficients are now available to order and degree 90. The half wavelength resolution at this order is approximately 210 km, allowing determination of the dominant gravity signature of most coronae and related features. We have examined the signatures of the seventeen Radial features identified by Stofan, which we test as representatives of the initial stage of corona formation given by Squyres, namely diapiric uplift and the production of radially fractured domes. Furthermore, we have examined the seventeen Radial/Concentric features listed by Stofan, as well as ten additional features which we have identified as also falling into this class, and test them as representatives of the middle stage of corona formation, namely diapir flattening and plateau formation. We compare the observed gravity anomalies with predictions of the gravity determined from the subsurface structure models thought to be responsible for each stage of c orona evolutionary surface expressions.
