All Sorry about this late notice and cross posting spam. Starting today the Arctic Region Supercomputing Center Postdoctoral Fellow's are going to present their work this summer in a seminar series to take place on the First and Third Wednesdays of each month at 1pm Alaska time. We will be using the lobby of the Arctic Region Supercomputing venue server located at https://agserver.arsc.edu: 8000/Venues/default. The venue is bridged for those without multicast.
Todays presentation is by Dr. John C. Chappelow. Arctic Region Supercomputing Center Postdoctoral Science Seminar Series Atmospheres and Impact: Mars John C. Chappelow, ARSC Postdoctoral Fellow in the Earth and Planetary Remote Sensing Group at the Geophysical Institute Meteoritic impact cratering on planetary bodies has long been used to infer surface ages and geologic processes and histories on planetary bodies. However, the very different appearances of the surfaces of the Earth and Moon attest to the effects atmospheres can have on incoming meteoroid populations. In this talk I will describe how impact cratering can also be used to study the histories atmospheres. I will also show that meteorite accumulation can be used to for all of the same purposes cratering can. Finally I will present what one meteorite has to say about the Mars's atmosphere. thank you Paul Mercer Arctic Region Supercomputing Center 907 450 8649
