Mercury's Crustal Thickness and Contractional Strain
The crust of Mercury has experienced contraction on a global scale. Contractional deformation is expressed by a broadly distributed network of lobate thrust fault scarps. The most likely principal source of stress is global contraction from cooling of Mercury's interior. Global contraction alon...
