This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Venus Tectonic Plates Concept Map, slowed plate tectonics in the past stopping lithospheric recycling, plate tectonics with supporting evidence including Volanic rises, lithospheric recycling and creating a thick, 60 mile lithosphere, plate tectonics but now does not because a thick, 60 mile lithosphere, Venus may have had plate tectonics, plate tectonics with supporting evidence including Volcanic plateaus, Volcanic plateaus which show that the lithosphere was once thinner, Volcanic plateaus which are regions of large lava deposits on the surface, Volanic rises which are dome-like bulges that can be 1000s of km wide, plate tectonics but now does not because lack of water, Volanic rises which show that rising magma from convective forces once caused the crust to buldge, lack of water which slowed plate tectonics in the past
