The Coprates quadrangle lies to the east of the Tharsis volcanic complex and the Noctis Labyrinthus tectonic complex. To the north are the plains of Lunae Planum, to the east the vast patches of chaotic terrain and the large sinuous channels that trend northward into Chryse Planitia. On the southwest is the Thaumasia Fossae region of tectonically deformed cratered terrain, to the...

The brightly rayed crater Coperincus, one of the most familiar features of the Moon served as the type example of an impact crater in Shoemaker's (1962) classic analysis. This map shows the geology of the crater as interpreted in photographs taken by Lunar Orbiter V. A geologic map at 1:1,000,000 scale showing the regional setting of Copernicus and the extent of the rim deposits and...

The geology for this map was compiled using Viking Orbiter images on 1:500,000- scale photomosaics of the Mars Transverse Mercator quadrangles -40262, -40267, and -40272. This map represents a detailed extension of regional geologic mapping of the east Hellas rim (Crown and others 1990, 1992) and is published at 1:1,000,000 scale. The map area is on the east rim of one of the largest...

The quadrangle is in the northern Maja Valles region on the west edge of the Chryse Planitia. This map is one in a sequence of three that also includes MTM 15057 and 20057. The sequence covers that part of the lower reaches of the Maja Valles that includes the transition from the higher Lunae Planum surface to the lower Chryse Planitia surface. The major interest in this quadrangle is...

The Diacria quadrangle lies within the north circumpolar lowlands of Mars (Carr and others, 1973; Scott and Carr, 1978). The dominant structural and physiographic features are low, relatively smooth plains (Arcadia Planitia, Vastitas Borealis) that form the northern two-thirds of the quadrangle. The plains rise to the south to form the north edge of the Amazonis Planitia and to the...

This map sheet is one of a series covering that part of the surface of Mercury that was illuminated during the Mariner 10 encounters. Planimetric control is provided by photogrammetric triangulation using Mariner 10 pictures (Davies and Batson, 1975). Discrepancies between images in the base mosaic and computed control-point positions appear to be less than 5 km. No attempt was made to...

The region centered at Elysium Mons contains that second largest volcanic complex on Mars, surpassed in size by only the Tharsis complex. The Elysium region also has been a center of tectonic, fluvial, and mass-wasting activity. After degradation of ancient cratered terrain within the northern lowlands, volcanic rocks erupted from Elysium Mons, Hectas Tholus, and Albor Tholus in Elysium...

The Eridania quadrangle is located within the densely cratered terrain of the southern hemisphere of Mars, east of the large circular Hellas Basin. The area contains three distinct physiographic provinces that divide the quadrangle into latitudinal belts. The northern part of the quadrangle is dominated by cratered upland plateau, the central part by plains, the southern part by a...

The Eudoxus quadrangle is in the northeastern part of the Moon's nearside hemisphere. It is bordered on the west by Montes Caucasus, which form part of the main rim of the multi-ringed Imbrium basin (Hartmann and Kuiper, 1962), and on the southside by Mare Serenitatis, which occupies another large multi-ringed basin. South and East of the prominent crater Eudoxus elevations decrease and...

The multi-ringed Nectaris basin (Hartmann and Kuiper, 1962) dominates the Fracastorius quadrangle. The basin is 840 km across as measured from the outermost ring and lies athwart four quadrangles. Fracastorius, the southeastern quadrangle, straddles the three rings of the basin (fig. 1). In this quadrangle most pre-Imbrian structures and many depositions were formed by the Nectaris...

The Geminus quadrangle, centrally located in the northeast quadrant of the lunar near side, is dominated geologically by several multiringed circular basins outside the quadrangle and five relatively young, large craters mapped here. The terra and the older craters apparently are mantled by a nearly continuous blanket of ejecta from the Serenitatis, Crisium, Humboldtianum, and Imbrium...

The Grimaldi quadrangle lies at the southwest margin of Oceanus Procellarum about 1,000 km east of Orientale, the youngest of the lunar multi-ringed basins. The distal ends of the ejecta blanket surrounding the Orientale basin partly covers the western third of the quadrangle. The relatively small, two-ring Grimaldi basin is in the northwest corner of the quadrangle, and the Humorum...
