Heat-pipe tectonics
... that heat-pipe tectonics explains why high mountains can remain standing on Io?O'Reilly, Thomas C.; Davies, Geoffrey F. (1981). "Magma transport of heat on Io: A mechanism allowing a thick lithosphere". Geophysical Research Letters. 8 (4): 313–316.[1]

Substantial article on good-looking sources, subscription sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. In the hook, I suggest to find a way that doesn't look like a conflict between a plural(-looking) noun and a singular verb, and also perhaps say "moon Io", because I wondered what "lo" might mean. This is the general readers' Main page, not a place where everybody immediately knows that Io is a moon. Thanks to writer and nominator! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:44, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
Tectonics is one of those words ending in s that is a singular noun. Without the "s" it will be an adjective. How about this hook Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:34, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
- alt1 ... that high mountains can remain standing on the moon Io because of heat-pipe tectonics?
