Planetary Geodynamics Turns Out for LPSC 36

Ten Papers Authored, Co-authored at Lunar and Planetary Science Conference

36th LPSC Logo

Members of the Planetary Geodynamics Laboratory authored or co-authored ten (10) papers presented at the recent Lunar and Planetary Science Conference 36, held in Houston, TX, March 14-18, 2005. This largest-ever LPSC meeting was dominated by oral and poster sessions on Mars, and most of the papers from Code 698 were also Mars-related. Co-authors of the 698 papers were from as nearby as Washington DC to as far away as Edinburg, Scotland. Four of the papers were given by an undergraduate, graduate or post-doc. A complete list below, arranged alphabetically by first Code 698 author (bold).
