Faulting, Mapping: Geological, Tectonics, Venus

Scientific paper

Geological mapping in Quadrangles V26 and V38 (25 degrees N- 25 degrees S, 180-210 degrees) is underway in order to elucidate geological history and test for Earth-like plate tectonics early in this planet's history. Herrick's model for resurfacing history posits shutdown of plate mobility on Venus at ~.8 Ga, and thus imposition of very different stress fields on now-relict features. In order to segregate younger from older tectonics, work at high spatial resolution is necessary: this offers the best chance of locating the embayment and cross-cutting relations needed. I am mapping within a GIS environment and using the recently released sinusoidal projected FMAP framelets as the primary base material.
