Impact cratering in sand: Comparing solid and liquid intruders
Witryna12 maj 2024 · Loose sand, blown away from source regions by winds, is transported across Mars's surface into sand sheets and dunes and accumulates within topographic sinks. In the absence of plate tectonics, impact craters constitute a dominant sink for windblown sediments on Mars today.
