Automatic Crater Classification Using a Deep‐Learning‐Based Pipeline

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Identifying and classifying impact craters on Mars is crucial for understanding the planet's geological history and surface evolution. Traditional crater classification relies on manual annotation methods, which are often limited by human biases and the difficulty of interpreting geomorphological features.

Solvent‐Induced Surface Morphology Probed by NP‐SIMS

Surface and Interface Analysis, Volume 58, Issue 9, Page 630-639, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Surface morphology, that is, roughness and molecular arrangement, is known to have an impact on secondary ion mass spectra. The present study examines this issue using nanoprojectile secondary ion mass spectrometry (NP‐SIMS). NP‐SIMS involves bombarding the analyte with individual nanoparticles resolved in space and time and recording the ...

Corundum Discovered by SuperCam and the Perseverance Rover at Jezero Crater, Mars

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Mars is primarily composed of mafic mineral assemblages and their alteration products, but small, scattered rocks strewn across the landscape offer clues to greater petrological diversity. While traversing the Jezero crater rim, the Perseverance rover encountered several plagioclase‐rich light‐toned float rocks.

Numerical Simulation of the Elastic–Plastic Ejection from Grooved Aluminum Surfaces Under Double Supported Shocks Using the SPH Method

Applied Sciences
The ejection of disturbed surfaces under multiple shocks is a critical phenomenon in pyrotechnic and inertial confinement fusion. In this study, the elastic–plastic ejection from grooved aluminum surfaces under double supported shocks was investigated ...

Large (∼80 km) Shield Volcanoes on the Moon Possibly Fed by Shallow Magma Reservoirs

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Large shield volcanoes are among the most prominent volcanic structures on terrestrial bodies. The Moon, while volcanically very active in the past and hosting various volcanic features, seems to lack such large shield volcanoes. Here, we report the identification of two lunar volcanic domes (Prinz‐Harbinger and Theophilus) with diameters ...

Application of a novel schema for describing fossil fern foliage and investigating taxonomic and morphological change across the Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary in western North America

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Premise The Chicxulub asteroid impact at the Cretaceous–Paleogene (K–Pg) boundary triggered a mass extinction 66 million years ago. Ferns thrived in the aftermath of the extinction, evidenced by the well‐documented “fern spore spike.” However, fern macrofossil records across the K–Pg boundary are less understood.

Chronology, Local Stratigraphy, and Foreign Ejecta Materials at the Chang'e‐6 Landing Site: Constraints on the Provenance of Samples Returned From the Moon's Farside

Geophysical Research Letters
China's Chang'e‐6 (CE‐6) mission has returned the first‐ever lunar farside samples from a mare plain on the southern Apollo basin floor. The crater statistics of the CE‐6 mare unit and the provenance of the samples are crucial in interpreting the CE‐6 ...
