Improving Lunar Exploration with Robotic Follow-up [PDF]
We are investigating how augmenting human field work with subsequent robot activity can improve lunar exploration. Robotic "follow-up" might involve: completing geology observations; making tedious or long-duration measurements of a target site or ...

ABSTRACT Shell middens in Gippsland along the eastern half of Victoria's coastline have usually been characterised as small, short‐duration camp sites with relatively low shell densities and low taxonomic diversity. Here we present new excavation results from a dense, high‐diversity site at Red Bluff near the eastern end of GunaiKurnai Country, a ...

Tectonic and cryovolcanic features on Europa suggest a dynamically active ice shell with a highly deformable near-surface brittle layer. Shell thickness estimates based on geological interpretation and thermal modeling vary from 10 km to more than 30 km.

Early Cenozoic denudation of central west Britain in response to transient and permanent uplift above a mantle plume [PDF]
Upwelling mantle plumes beneath continental crust are predicted to produce difficult to quantify, modest uplift and denudation. The contribution of permanent and transient components to the uplift is also difficult to distinguish.

Zooarchaeological Analysis of an Atoll Assemblage From Central Micronesia
ABSTRACT There has been a dearth of archaeological research on atolls in the central‐eastern Caroline Islands of Micronesia. This has limited our understanding of pre‐contact subsistence and settlement strategies in these more marginal and remote environments, particularly in regards to zooarchaeological data.

Comparison of Reference Heights of O/N2 and ∑O/N2 Based on GUVI Dayside Limb Measurement
We define a new thermospheric concept, the reference heights of O/N2, referring to a series of thermospheric heights corresponding to the fixed ratios of O to N2 number density. Here, based on Global Ultraviolet Imager (GUVI) limb measurement, we compare
