Thesis Topic:
Impact melt rocks found on Earth and the Moon: Examining physical characteristics of impactites and impact crater ejecta, how their morphology and processes of formation relate to terrestrial volcanic deposits, and how this comparison can help us better describe, classify, and name impactites.
