Plate tectonics is a style of convection for an active planetoid where lid fragment(plate) motions reflect sinking of dense lithosphere in subduction zones, causing upwelling of asthenosphere at divergent plate boundaries and accompanied by focused upwellings, or mantle plumes;any other tectonic style is usefully called "stagnant lid" or "fragmented lid". In 2015 humanity completed a 50+ year effort to survey the 30 largest planets, asteroids, satellites, and inner Kuiper Belt objects,which we informally call "planetoids" and use especially images of these bodies to infer their tectonic activity. The four largest planetoids are enveloped in gas and ice(Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune)and are not considered. The other 26 planetoids range in mass over 5 orders of magnitude and in diameter over 2 orders of magnitude, from massive Earth down to tiny Proteus; these bodies also range widely in density, from 1000 to 5500 kg/m^3. A gap separates 8 silicate planetoids with ρ = 3000 kg/m^3 or greater from 20 icy planetoids(including the gaseous and icy giant planets) with ρ = 2200 kg/m^3 or less. We define the "Tectonic Activity Index"(TAI), scoring each body from 0 to 3 based on evidence for recent volcanism, deformation, and resurfacing(inferred from impact crater density). Nine planetoids with TAI = 2 or greater are interpreted to be tectonically and convectively active whereas 17 with TAI <2 are inferred to be tectonically dead. We further infer that active planetoids have lithospheres or icy shells overlying asthenosphere or water/weak ice. TAI of silicate(rocky) planetoids positively correlates with their inferred Rayleigh number. We conclude that some type of stagnant lid tectonics is the dominant mode of heat loss and that plate tectonics is unusual. To make progress understanding Earth's tectonic history and the tectonic style of active exoplanets, we need to better understand the range and controls of active stagnant lid tectonics.展开更多

They provide important insights into the evolution of the Moon and are key factors influencing future lunar activity, such as the choice of landing sites. However, automatic extraction of lunar wrinkle ridges is a challenging task due to their complex morphology and ambiguous features. Traditional manual extraction methods are time-consuming and labor-intensive. To achieve automated and detailed detection of lunar wrinkle ridges, we have constructed a lunar wrinkle ridge data set, incorporating previously unused aspect data to provide edge information, and proposed a Dual-Branch Ridge Detection Network(DBR-Net) based on deep learning technology. This method employs a dual-branch architecture and an Attention Complementary Feature Fusion module to address the issue of insufficient lunar wrinkle ridge features. Through comparisons with the results of various deep learning approaches, it is demonstrated that the proposed method exhibits superior detection performance. Furthermore, the trained model was applied to lunar mare regions, generating a distribution map of lunar mare wrinkle ridges;a significant linear relationship between the length and area of the lunar wrinkle ridges was obtained through statistical analysis, and six previously unrecorded potential lunar wrinkle ridges were detected. The proposed method upgrades the automated extraction of lunar wrinkle ridges to a pixel-level precision and verifies the effectiveness of DBR-Net in lunar wrinkle ridge detection.展开更多
