An analysis of 222 large (greater than 20-km-diameter) impact craters on Venus using both cycle 1 and cycle 2 Magellan data is being conducted to determine the radiophysical properties (i.e., backscatter cross section, emissivity, reflectivity, rms slope) of the craters and to search for correlations with target region properties and subsequent geological history.
