Standardizing the nomenclature of Martian impact crater ejecta morphologies. Journal of Geophysical Research 105: doi: 10.1029/2000JE001258. issn: 0148-0227.

The Mars Crater Morphology Consortium recommends the use of a standardized nomenclature system when discussing Martian impact crater ejecta morphologies. The system utilizes nongenetic descriptors to identify the various ejecta morphologies seen on Mars. This system is designed to facilitate communication and collaboration between researchers. Crater morphology databases will be achieved through the U.S. Geological Survey in Flagstaff, where a comprehensive catalog of Martian crater morphologic information will be maintained. ¿ 2000 American Geophysical Union
