Lognonné n Science objectives u Crustal formation,evolution, impact and volcanic comparative tectonics u Propagation of seismic waves in the Martian crust. n Data: MGS ( gravimetry, altimetry) n results: u Crustal thickness. Estimation of the fraction of primary crust in the southern hemisphere u Estimation of the thickness of the elastic lithosphere and of the density of volcanoes
