It also discusses in detail the processes that have hidden or erased terrestrial impact craters, and clearly explains the basic principles of remote sensing and the COSMO-SkyMed system and radar instruments. Also, the optical satellite remote sensing technique used to produce the optical images is described. The main section documents each of the exposed craters officially recognized as caused by meteoritic impact, presenting a table with the COSMO-SkyMed radar image and, where available, a Sentinel optical image and a photograph taken in situ. A short accompanying text reports the location, context, geographical coordinates, and other ancillary information to support future researches.. | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | Asteroid Impacts on Earth; Crater Impact; Early Earth Bombardment; Finding Impact Craters; Impact Crater | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-05451-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-05451-9 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 |
