Famous flat floored craters.
One variant of the floor morphology is a relatively flat more or less level floor.
Small numbers of iron meteorites have been found in the vicinity of the crater.
The crater that was left was probably about 120 meters deep.
Flat floored craters occur in complex craters or highly degraded or modified simple craters.
Such flat floors extend across the entire reach of the crater bottom or can be interrupted at the center by a central peak or peak ring.
These craters range in size up to many hundreds of kilometers but the most enormous craters have been flooded by lava and only parts of the outline are visible.
The flat portion of the floor may occur at the crater center or occur as an annulus around a central uplift synonymsflat floored impact craterdescriptionimpact craters can have a variable floor.
In diameter located about 40 miles southwest of the crater lalande is a good example of a simple crater.
The wind gradually filled it with sand over the next 300 000 years and today the crater floor is 60 meters 200 feet below the rim which rises 25 meters above the surrounding flat desert land.
Alphonsus diameter 108 km is at the lower left and albategnius crater diameter 114 km is at lower right.
They start with rounded floors then progress to a flat floor resulting from a cascade of boulders that have rolled down the interior walls and settled at the bottom.
Partially surrounding the bay is a ridge up to 100 m above the lake with a maximum diameter of 13 km which probably represents the outer rim of the crater.
The deep bay flat floored crater is a nearly circular lake near the south end of reindeer lake.
Such postimpact modification can include regolith transported down the crater walls and onto the floor infilling by aeolian or lacustrine material or infilling by lava unrelated to the impact process e g plato flooding of the crater by lavas e g schultz 1976a.
Over the next 300 000 years the wind gradually filled it with sand and today the crater floor is 60 meters 200 feet below the rim which rises 25 meters above the surrounding flat desert land.
Simple craters are 10 miles in diameter or less.
Flat floored craters occur for two reasons.
Crater floor a more or less smooth flat area which as it ages accumulates small craters of its own central peak found only in some craters with a diameter exceeding 26 kilometres 16 mi.
This crater is named the wolfe creek crater and it is located in australia.
Lofn is a large relatively young impact crater on jupiter s galilean satellite callisto it was identified in 1997 and named after the goddess of marriage in norse mythology located near the south pole of this moon lofn is classified as a flat floored or anomalous dome impact crater it is superimposed on adlinda multilayer structure obscuring about 30 of it.
Ptolemaeus is the large diameter 164 km flat floored crater at the top.
Lalande a only 8 mi.
