Scientific paper

New digital mappings of the wrinkle ridges of the plains of Venus show large-scale wrinkle-ridge (WR) and rift distribution properties consistent with the swell-push model (SPM) of lithospheric stress. Comparisons of mapped tectonic features and the SPM suggest that the geometries of most rift zones and several large-scale WR systems are consistent with the present-day stress field.
