Crater geometry and ejecta thickness of the Martian impact crater Tooting
, 2007 We use Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA) topographic data and Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS) visible (VIS) images to study the cavity and the ejecta blanket of a very fresh Martian impact crater ~29 km in diameter, with the provisional ...

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.The control efficacy of a novel laser pulse system operating at 1940 nm was tested. The new system allows effective control of young weeds with 1.5 J. Targeting the plant stem is 53‐fold more energy‐efficient than the meristem. Species morphology and beam diameter significantly influence weed control efficacy. Abstract BACKGROUND This study evaluates a

Morphological Features-Based Descriptive Index System for Lunar Impact Craters
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2017 Lunar impact craters are important for studying lunar surface morphology because they are the most typical morphological units of the Moon. Impact crater descriptive indices can be used to describe morphological features and thus provide direct evidence ...

The Evolution of Autonomous Systems for Planetary Cave Exploration: A Review
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The exploration of Subsurface Access Points (SAPs), such as lava tubes on the Moon and Mars, has gained significant interest due to their potential as stable environments shielded from surface radiation and temperature extremes. These sites are considered high‐value targets for detecting water and signs of ancient life, and assessing their ...

Vog: Using Volcanic Eruptions to Estimate the Health Costs of Particulates
The Economic Journal, EarlyView., 2018 The negative consequences of long‐term exposure to particulate pollution are well established but a number of studies find no effect of short‐term exposure on health outcomes. The high correlation of industrial pollutants complicates the estimation of the impact of individual pollutants on health.

Crater Morphometry on Callisto
The Planetary Science JournalImpact crater formation is affected by the physical properties of planetary crusts, allowing comparison of crater dimensions to serve as a proxy for comparing the crustal properties of different planetary bodies.

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Solvent‐Induced Surface Morphology Probed by NP‐SIMS
Surface and Interface Analysis, EarlyView.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 ...

Post-impact heating of a crater lake [PDF]
, 2013 Lacustrine sediments from the 24 km diameter Boltysh impact structure record the rapid formation of an intra-crater lake. Stable isotope compositions and organic maturity parameters from the lake sediments deposited post-impact show that they were heated
