Martian Tectonic Systems: How the largest volcanoes in the Solar System shaped structures on Mars
Переглядів 2553 місяці тому
As a world without plate tectonics, Mars has a fundamentally different setting to Earth, and yet we observe many familiar structural features at the surface. Mars is also home to the largest volcanoes in the Solar System, which are the spectacular surface expressions of an enormous, long-lived magmatic system underlying the region known as Tharsis. The many surface structures in the Tharsis reg...
