Granular avalanches on the Moon: Mass‐wasting conditions, processes, and features

Seven lunar crater sites of granular avalanches are studied utilizing high‐resolution images (0.42–1.3 m/pixel) from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera; one, in Kepler crater, is examined in detail. All the sites are slopes of debris extensively aggraded by frictional freezing at their dynamic...
