Scientific paper

Altimetry from LOLA reveals that almost all volcanic complexes in the
lunar maria occur on topographic swells, tens to hundreds of kilometers
in extent and several kilometers high. We propose that these swells are
shield volcanoes, equivalent to large basaltic shields found on Earth,
Mars, and Venus.
