Soils and Landscapes
1 reportResearch on Soils and Landscapes examines an Earth process, material, landscape, water system, or hazard through field and geophysical evidence. Current understanding relies on soil horizons, sediment transport, and primary observations, with uncertainty tracked across measurement, classification, and reconstruction.
To assess how erosion rates are measured, reports compare model results, sediment transport, and soil horizons. They also ask which observations support the interpretation, showing how sparse measurements or incomplete records limit certainty.

Australia's Spider Crater Preserves the Shape of an Ancient Impact
A satellite image of Western Australia's Spider Crater shows pale ridges radiating from a central dome. Geologists link the pattern to an ancient impact and evidence in shocked rock
