Data pubblicazione: | 2016 | Rivista: | JOURNAL OF MAPS | Numero: | 12 | Fascicolo: | sup1 | Da pagina:: | 227 | Abstract: | Mercury’s quadrangle H02 ‘Victoria’ is located in the planet’s northern hemisphere and lies between latitudes 22.5° N and 65° N, and between longitudes 270° E and 360° E. This quadrangle covers 6.5% of the planet’s surface with a total area of almost 5 million km2. Our 1:3,000,000-scale geologic map of the quadrangle was produced by photo-interpretation of remotely sensed orbital images captured by the MESSENGER spacecraft. Geologic contacts were drawn between 1:300,000 and 1:600,000 mapping scale and constitute the boundaries of intercrater, intermediate and smooth plains units; in addition, three morpho-stratigraphic classes of craters larger than 20 km were mapped. The geologic map reveals that this area is dominated by Intercrater Plains encompassing some almost-coeval, probably younger, Intermediate Plains patches and interrupted to the north-west, north-east and east by the Calorian Northern Smooth Plains. This map represents the first complete geologic survey of the Victoria quadrangle at this scale, and an improvement of the existing 1:5,000,000 Mariner 10-based map, which covers only 36% of the quadrangle. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/30653 | URL: | https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/17445647.2016.1193777 | ISSN: | 1744-5647 | DOI: | 10.1080/17445647.2016.1193777 | Fulltext: | open |
