Experimental Impacts into Strength-Layered Targets: Ejecta Kinematics [PDF]

open access: yes
AImpact cratering has dominated the evolution and modification of planetary surfaces through-out the history of the solar system. Impact craters can serve as probes to understanding the details of a planetary subsurface; for example, Oberbeck and Quaide,

Projectile Velocity and Crater Formation in Water

open access: yesInternational Scholastic Journal of Science, 2010
The relationship between the velocity of impact and maximum crater diameter was found for two steel balls dropped into water using 300 fps video. The maximum diameter of the crater was found to be proportional to the impact velocity and independent of ...

Using incentive payments to promote human–carnivore coexistence

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract For many large carnivores, minimizing the financial burden they impose on local people is critical to their conservation. Incentive‐based programs that provide people with financial benefits for taking pro‐conservation actions or achieving conservation goals are a promising tool for promoting human–carnivore coexistence. Although the number of

A Second Large Subglacial Impact Crater in Northwest Greenland? [PDF]

open access: yes
Following the discovery of the Hiawatha impact crater beneath the northwest margin of the Greenland Ice Sheet, we explored satellite and aerogeophysical data in search of additional such craters.

Quantitative Research on the Morphological Characteristics of Lunar Impact Craters of Different Stratigraphic Ages since the Imbrian Period

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Impact craters serve as recorders of lunar evolutionary history, and determining the stratigraphic ages of craters is crucial. However, the age of many craters on the Moon remains undetermined.

RioM‐1: A New Calcite Reference Material for U‐Pb LA‐ICP‐MS Geochronology

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points RioM‐1 calcite was characterised for trace elements, U‐Pb geochronology, Sr and O isotopes using ID‐TIMS, LA‐ICP‐MS and SIMS. U‐Pb dates from ID‐TIMS and LA‐ICP‐MS across several independent laboratories returned identical results within uncertainty.

Experimental evidence for non-proportional growth of large craters [PDF]

open access: yes
Evidence from laboratory impact experiments is indicating that increasing crater aspect ratios (diameter:depth) can result from increasing both velocity and projectile size without invoking unusual impactor conditions.

Six Ca‐Mg‐Fe Carbonate Reference Materials for In Situ Measurement of Oxygen and Carbon Isotope Ratios

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points Six new Ca‐Mg‐Fe carbonate reference materials are available to the global geochemical community for calibrating oxygen and carbon isotope ratios by SIMS. Significant compositional matrix effects were observed in the dolomite‐ankerite and magnesite‐siderite series during SIMS analysis. Compositional matrix effects correlate with Fe variation.
