Araguainha Dome, Brazil: A polygonal impact structure due to a complex pre‐impact regional structural framework

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigated the structural framework of the north–northwestern Paraná Basin in Brazil to test whether the pre‐impact structures in this region may have had any influence on the first‐order formation and morphostructure of the Araguainha impact structure (AIS).

Chart demonstrating the effects of fire size on the percentage of heated lithics.

open access: yes, 2018
Parameters: Fires Random/Lithic Scatters Random (FR/LSR), 1 fire, 4 lithic scatters, 0–100% TB, 1% introduced lithics. While a 1 m-wide fire (fire size 4) is effectively a cluster of four 50 cm-wide hearths (fire size 1) in our model, note the slightly ...

Revisiting the Hummeln structure, Sweden—A shallow marine Cambrian impact structure

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Hummeln is a simple impact structure located in south‐eastern Sweden. It is approximately 1.2 km in diameter and almost completely covered by a lake. Here, we present the first detailed investigation of impactites and mapping of the 164.25 m deep drill core Hummeln‐1 with a focus on impact metamorphism and the impact process.

Understanding the magmatic systems beneath the central Taupō Volcanic Zone, New Zealand: insights from plutonic lithics

open access: yes
The central Taupō Volcanic Zone (cTVZ) (North Island, New Zealand) has seen abundant Quaternary silicic magmatism since ∼1.9 Ma. In regions of such young magmatism, where uplift and exhumation have not occurred, plutonic lithics in volcanic deposits ...

Impact‐diagnostic criteria for use in confirming a meteorite impact origin of terrestrial geological structures: Recommendations by the Impact Cratering Committee of the Meteoritical Society

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The framework of the Impact Cratering Committee (ICC) of the Meteoritical Society was approved in 2020, with the first committee members appointed in 2023. The ICC has a mandate to (1) approve, maintain, and update a database of confirmed terrestrial meteorite impact structures, (2) define and regularly update the criteria used for ...
