Proposals are solicited that focus on geomorphic and geophysical studies of planetary  processes  and landforms and that integrate a range of remote sensing and field analog observations and techniques. Research topics include quantitative geomorphology, geological and geomorphic mapping, impact cratering, planetary cryospheres, and comparative planetology. Current projects include using geomorphology and radar datasets to understand the origin and evolution of the cryosphere of Mars and its resource potential and impact cratering on terrestrial bodies. This research generally involves cross-comparison of planetary data sets, including infrared data, optical imaging, topographic data, radar, field observations and numerical models.
