Michel:

IMHO, "it all depends". From my research, the best I could come up with:

quoted from my web-site: http://www.ottawa.rasc.ca/astronomy/earth_craters/intro.html

"In this article, I will present the craters that I have explored in the order of their size, starting with simple craters, moving to complex craters and finishing with multiring basins. The transition size between simple to complex craters is 2km in sediments and 4km in crystalline rocks. The transition size between complex to ringed basin craters is 10 to 50 km."

I would love more input on this.

Thanks

Dear list

I was wandering what is the minimum size of terrestrial impact crater
that show a central uplift.
Best regards
