Key Points

  • The study aims to compare the morphology, origin, and absolute ages of smooth plains on the Moon and Mercury.
  • Created detailed global geomorphological maps for the Moon and Mercury.
  • Analyzed morphological features related to their origins.
  • Determined absolute model ages using crater size-frequency distribution.
  • Applied Poisson error analysis for age estimation.
  • Identified distinctive morphological characteristics of smooth plains on both celestial bodies.
  • Provided absolute model ages for over 100 deposits globally distributed.
  • Found variations in origins between lunar and Mercurian smooth plains.

Abstract

Doktorarbeit, die Morphologie, Ursprung(e) und absolute Modellalter der hellen Mondebenen und der glatten Ebenen des Merkur vergleicht. Neue, detaillierte, globale geomorphologische Karten wurden für beide Landformen erstellt, um morphologische und ursprungsbezogene Untersuchungen zu ermöglichen. Die absoluten Modellalter von über 100 weltweit verteilten Ablagerungen wurden unter Verwendung der Kratergrößen-Häufigkeitsverteilung und der Poisson-Fehleranalyse bestimmt.
