TRASK U.S. Geological Survey Reston, Virginia 22092 AND RONALD GREELEY Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona 85281 Received May 5, 1980; revised July 1, 1981 The 1300-km-diameter Caloris impact basin is surrounded by well-defined ejecta units that can be recognized from more than 1000 km, radially outward from the basin edge. A formal rock stratigraphic nomenclature is proposed for the Caloris ejecta units, which are collectively called the Caloris Group. Each of the individual formations within the Group are described and compared to similar rock units associated with the lunar Imbrium and Orientale basins. A crater degradation chronology, linked the the Caloris event, is also proposed to assist in stratigraphic correlation on a Mercury-wide basis.

Wilson U.S. Geological Survey ABSTRACT Surface processes accelerated by severe storms during the 1997–1998 El Niño event scoured hillsides and damaged property across coastal Cali- fornia. Technological advances such as digital mapping, exemplified here for the San Francisco Bay area but applicable elsewhere, have enabled government agencies to better describe, monitor, and predict the effects of shoreline erosion and slope failure. INTRODUCTION Major storms struck California in 1997–1998, ravaging the coast and spawn- ing floods and landslides (Fig. 1). By late spring, property losses statewide had exceeded $550 million, and 35 counties were declared Federal Disaster Areas. Mindful of severe winters past (Ellen, 1988) and the predicted El Niño anomaly, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) joined other agencies to anticipate new areas of hazard while sustaining monitoring efforts already in place across the state (http:// www.usgs.gov/elnino.html). Here, we illustrate some of the winter’s destructive geomorphic effects in the San Francisco Bay area (Fig.

Abstract Impact cratering is an abrupt, spectacular process that occurs on any world with a solid surface. On Earth, these craters are easily eroded or destroyed through endogenic processes. The Moon and Mercury, however, lack a significant atmosphere, meaning craters on these worlds remain intact longer, geologically. In this thesis, remote-sensing techniques were used to investigate impact melt emplacement about Mercury’s fresh, complex craters. For complex lunar craters, impact melt is preferentially ejected from the lowest rim elevation, implying topographic control. On Venus, impact melt is preferentially ejected downrange from the impact site, implying impactor-direction control. Mercury, despite its heavily-cratered surface, trends more like Venus than like the Moon.
