Five studies related to sedimentary processes on Mars
Abstract
A summary is given of sedimentary processes on Mars. Data cover: (1) extremely high atmospheric wind velocities for entraining particulate matter, (2) reconnaissance studies of sedimentary patterns around the Pinacat volcanic field and adjacent Sonora domes, (3) craters and associated aeolian features visible on Mariner 9 photographs, (4) analysis of computerized crater and aeolian features, and (5) morophologic classification and impact exposure ages of Martial craters in equatorial cratered terrain.
