Morphological Characteristics of Lunar Craters with Moderate Depth / Diameter Ratio - Part One - 0.08<D/D<0.12
Abstract
The morphological characteristics of craters, the depth/diameter ratio of which is between 0.08 and 0.12, are discussed. It is observed that craters having that moderate d/D ratio are, mainly, either small, presenting signs of degradation, or large young craters.
