The objective of this study is to understand the basic characteristics and morphological expression of this 3.6 million year old impact crater.
Techniques employed include remote sensing, field studies, and sample analysis.
Chicxulub Crater, Yucatan Mexico. Techniques primarily involve analysis of geophysical data and drill core samples. Morphological characteristics of small craters on Mars. Here I use photoclinometry to determine the cross sectional shape of small craters on a variety of martian terrains. The objective is to determine if fresh crater shape is influenced by the physical properties of the martian surface and, if so, to use morphological variations to help identify target properties.
