Garvin J. B.* Tucker C. J. Anderson C. McClain D. R. Melocik K. et al.
Reassessing the Past Million Years of NEO Impact Cratering on Earth via High Resolution Digital Topography [#2608]
Estimation of final apparent impact crater diameters on Earth can be facilitated via analysis of newly available topography data for ultra-recent examples.

Re-Interpretation of the Flynn Creek Impact Structure, Tennessee [#1501]
Flynn Creek is a 3.8-km marine-target impact structure that was formed during the Late Devonian. We argue here that Flynn Creek is not a complex impact structure.

Chinchalkar N. S.* Osinski G. R. Erickson T. M. Cayron C.
Superheated Melt at West Clearwater Impact Structure: Evidence from Cubic Zirconia [#1768]
We report the first occurrence of cubic zirconia, a high-temperature zirconia polymorph, at West Clearwater impact structure.
9:55 AM
Simpson S. L.* Rampe E. B. Christoffersen R. Keller L. P. Jakubek R. et al.
High Resolution Imaging and Analysis of Terrestrial Impact Glass: Amorphous Materials, Phyllosilicates and Everything in Between [#1738]
TEM, XRD, and Raman analyses of altered impact glass reveals a complicated relationship between amorphous silicate, amorphous carbon, clays, and clay-like phases.

In Situ Shock Veins on Earth: Donwilhelmsite, Maskelynite, Stishovite, Stöfflerite, Tissintite (and more) from the Manicouagan Impact Structure [#1307]
We describe the terrestrial geologic setting and P-T-t constraints for several mineral species in shock veins previously only described from meteorites.

How Low Can Craters Go? Testing the Maximum Identifiable Depth of Eroded Impact Craters at the Vredefort Impact Structure [#2063]
Craters can be quite large / Erode to the depths, what will remain? / Physical properties hide all secrets.
10:55 AM
Barrett T. J.* Robinson K. L. Nagashima K. Huss G. R. Boyce J. W. et al.
A Chlorine Isotope Transect Across the Sudbury Impact Deposits Reveals Enigmatic Isotopic Fractionation [#2652]
