Morgan J. V. Gulick S. P. S. Urrutia-Fucugauchi J. Collins G. S. Perez-Cruz L. et al. POSTER LOCATION #103 IODP-ICDP Expedition 364: Drilling the K-Pg Impact Structure [#1747] The peak ring of the Chicxulub impact structure will be drilled in 2016 in a joint IODP-ICDP venture. Here we outline the questions that drilling will address.
Gaither T. A. Hagerty J. J. Bailen M. POSTER LOCATION #104 The USGS Flynn Creek Crater Drill Core Collection: Progress on a Web-Based Portal and Online Database for the Planetary Science Community [#2089] Progress on construction of a web-based portal and online database for the USGS Astrogeology Science Center’s Flynn Creek Crater Drill Core Collection.
Pietrek A. Kenkmann T. Jung D. POSTER LOCATION #105 Bunte Breccia Revisited: The Distribution and Source of Water in the Ejecta of Ries Crater; Germany [#1534] Based on the detailed study of two fully cored drillcores, the distribution and source horizons of water in the Bunte Breccia of Ries crater were characterized.
Xie Z. Zuo S. Wang H. POSTER LOCATION #106 Fe-Rich Concretions Bearing Angular Quartz Fragments from Taihu Lake, Southeast of China: Products of Airburst Eject Plumes ~7–8 K Years Ago [#1754] Fe-rich concretions bearing angular quartz fragments of Taihu lake in Southeast China were formed in the eject plumes by airbursts ~7–8 thousand years ago.
Komatsu G. Ormö J. Bayaraa T. Arai T. Nagao K. et al. POSTER LOCATION #107 The Tsenkher Structure, Gobi-Altai, Mongolia: A Probable Impact Crater with Well-Preserved Rampart Ejecta [#1338] We present our combined field and sample studies of the Tsenkher structure in Gobi-Altai, a probable impact crater with well-preserved rampart ejecta.
Wright S. P. POSTER LOCATION #108 Lonar Crater, India: An Analog for Mars in the Field and in the Laboratory [#2912] Not only is fieldwork of Lonar Crater, India, a boon for impact studies, lab/sample data of shocked, altered basalt have implications for SNCs and mission data.
Lambert P. POSTER LOCATION #109 Rochechouart as Natural Impact Laboratory: A Review [#1915] Reviewing impact related studies for ground truth data mining at Rochechouart, in the scope of drillings plans and research facility opening on site..
Milam K. A. Henderson T. Deane B. Bensko J. POSTER LOCATION #110 Petrography and XRD Analysis of the Howell Structure, Lincoln County, Tennessee [#2455] This work involves an assessment of shock metamorphism in samples from drill cores collected from the Howell structure, a proposed impact in Lincoln Co., TN.
Henderson T. Milam K. A. POSTER LOCATION #111 XRD Analyses of Silurian Dolostones from the Central Uplift of the Kentland Impact Structure, Newton County, Indiana, USA [#2989] A preliminary study of XRD spectra from shatter-coned dolostone from the central uplift of the Kentland impact structure shows some evidence of peak broadening.

Rae A. S. P. Morgan J. V. Collins G. S. Osinski G. R. Grieve R. A. F. POSTER LOCATION #112 Observational Constraints on Structural Uplift Formation: The West Clearwater Impact Structure [#1451] Measure blocks and shocks/With iSALE, we can see why/Target rocks are weak.
Wilks R. P. A. Osinski G. R. POSTER LOCATION #113 Impact Melt Veins in the Central Uplift of the West Clearwater Lake Impact Structure, Northern Quebec, Canada [#1397] An analysis of melt veins was conducted using petrography and geochemistry in order to better understand their formation processes.
Walton E. L. Hughes A. H. Herd C. D. K. POSTER LOCATION #114 Previously Unrecognized Impactites from the Steen River Impact Structure, NW Alberta, Canada: A New Variety of Suevite? [#2592] Crater fill deposits from the Steen River impact structure contain glass clasts in a matrix of fine-grained pyroxene and feldspar formed by thermal metamorphism.
Morlok A. Hiesinger H. Helbert J. POSTER LOCATION #115 Mid-Infrared Studies of Impact Rocks (2): Melt from Suevites of Mistastin and Mien Impact Craters [#2196] Mid-infrared spectra were obtained from impact rock melts and breccias from the Mistastin and Mien craters.
