Dorsum Buckland is a large wrinkle ridge at {{Lunar coords and quad cat|20.4|N|12.8|E|globe:Moon}} in Mare Serenitatis on the Moon, 369 km long. It was named after British geologist William Buckland in 1976.[http://planetarynames.wr.usgs.gov/Feature/1608 Dorsum Buckland], Gazetteer of Planetary Nomenclature, International Astronomical Union (IAU) Working Group for Planetary System Nomenclature (WGPSN)

Dorsum Buckland's ridges are 200 to 300 meters high and were formed by compressional stresses near the center of the basin, possibly over buried basin structures.[http://www.lpi.usra.edu/resources/stereo_atlas/HTDOCS/LSER-B3.HTM Stereo Atlas] FEATURES OF INTEREST, Montes Haemus, Mare Serenitatis, L&PI, 2000.
