P31I:
Using Topography to Investigate the Evolution of Solar System Bodies II Posters


Submit an Abstract to this Session


Session ID#: 46689

Session Description:
Spacecraft have collected diverse datasets of shape and topography for many solar system bodies. These data provide insight into geological and geophysical processes and properties that influenced the history of a body, on global and local scales. We invite abstracts on topics in which topography plays a role. These may describe theoretical investigations, laboratory studies or data analysis of any body in the solar system and can include (but are not limited to): topographic measurements that are indicative of the types of surface terrain or environments present; processes that create or erase/erode surface topography at any scale; and subsurface processes that are expressed by surface topography.
