Coronae are volcanotectonic features that are unique to Venus and are interpreted to be small-scale upwellings. A model in which upwelling causes delamination at the edge of the plume head, along with deformation of a preexisting depleted mantle layer, produced the full range of topographic forms of coronae. If half of the coronae are active, delam...
