 Development of the Crater   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
The present crater floor is underlain by loose, porous, and permeable debris from the landslide caused by the collapse of the upper third of the volcano during the 1980 eruption.
The most active surface processes taking place in the crater are (1) continued landslides from the steep crater walls, (2) fluvial down cutting in the stream courses that have established themselves across the crater floor, and (3) debris flows developing from slope failure on the north crater floor.
The presence of red sulfur bacteria indicates that sulfur is an active component in the aqueous chemistry of the crater environment and a prominent source of acidity in the water that acts to digest crater rocks.

 Mail Tribune Sports - Anderson leads North to victory
Anderson drilled a 12-foot jumper from the left wing just five seconds into the game, swished a 3-pointer 33 seconds into the contest and scored again at the 6:13 mark of the first period when he stole the ball and made a layup.
It was Anderson 7, Crater 2 at that juncture, and by the time he sank a 12-foot jumper with 31 seconds remaining in the period, he had 14 of North Medford’s 22 points, while the Comets had but 11.
Not much was going right for Crater, but Andrew Norum ignited a third-period charge that saw the Comets crawl within 40-37 with 2:05 left in the period.

he crater left by a meteorite 35 million years ago at Chesapeake Bay is larger than the Manson Impact, according to Peter Schultz, a geology professor at Brown University.
Anderson theorizes the meteorite was traveling at 60,000 mph when it hit.
The impact was about 3 1/2 miles deep, and as it bore into the earth, the sides of the crater were lifted 1 1/2 miles high from the earth's surface.

Anderson says he has expanded his studies to monitor the ice density inside the dome and observe the ice melt to determine if the mountain is heating up in preparation for another eruption.
Weather permitting, he plans to ride a helicopter into the crater with a group of scientists and to land at the base of the steaming lava dome before 8:32 a.m.
Anderson barely survived a surprise spring snow storm that hit while he and his first wife, Edith, were exploring the Paradise Ice Caves in 1968.

Archaeologist Mark Elson and geomorphologist Kirk Anderson are studying half-buried, scattered stones in a forest of ponderosa pines.
Sunset Crater is a classic cinder cone, a type of volcano that erupts only once, builds its cone with a steady shower of ash, and bleeds lava from vents at its base.
In 1998, at a small pit house settlement two and a half miles from the nearest Sunset Crater lava flow, Elson and his team found 55 chunks of fl Sunset Crater lava marked with molded impressions of prehistoric corn.

Geologist Charlie Anderson says the crater dangers are everywhere at Mt St Helens: “Some of the rocks coming down the walls of the crater are as big as a Volkswagen.
As seen in Anderson’s videotape documentary of his varied visits, (Anderson’s trips into the crater began just after the 1980 eruption), the crater is a strange landscape marked by steam and gas vents, pyramid-shaped ash piles that have been formed by constant winds and algae-rich green and brown streams.
Anderson says the lines are actually deep crevasses and that they change with each of his visits.

Another feature of the geological record in Iowa that is given expanded treatment is the Manson impact crater in the northwestern part of the state.
Having written the definitive history of Iowa's geology, Anderson is moving the subject of his attention westward to south-central Colorado, specifically to a high-elevation valley bordered on the east by the Wet Mountains and on the west by the Sangre de Cristo Mountains.
So far, Anderson's study of the area has produced a monograph titled "Geology of the Custer County Area, South-Central Colorado," which he hopes will grow into a book that will be useful to the general public.

An overturned ejecta flap of stratigraphically inverted Proterozoic and Phanerozoic blocks/clasts is identified in one drill core from the terrace terrane, in a region downdropped at least 600 m relative to the crater margin.
Crater modeling indicates that faulting within the terrace terrane and uplift of the central peak would have occurred within seconds to minutes after impact.
Therefore, it is suggested that the SCB was transported from the crater rim by gravitationally driven mass wasting, coincident with and immediately following large-scale fault movements associated with the formation of the Terrace Terrane and the uplift of the central peak.

The Ngorongoro Crater is located about 90 km to the southeast of the Serengeti study area, and the Crater lions enjoy higher and more consistent levels of food availability than the Serengeti lions (Hanby, Bygott and Packer 1995).
However, the Crater is a small, isolated population (80-100 animals) with an associated loss in genetic diversity compared to the much larger Serengeti population (O'Brien, et al.
It was not possible to estimate the extent of the earlier CDV epidemics, but it is at least noteworthy that CDV in 1994 was the most extensive of any documented outbreak and struck the largest population of susceptibles.

The overturned ejecta flap is interpreted to represent late-stage collapse of the ejecta curtain as the transient crater approached its maximum extent.
The Phanerozoic-clast breccia is compositionally similar to the Bunte breccia at the Ries Crater, but, unlike the Bunte breccia, the Phanerozoic-clast breccia occurs inside, not outside, of the crater rim.
The Phanerozoic-clast breccia was probably derived from deposits of primary ejecta and secondary surface scour outside the crater, and from strata in the terrace headscarps.

 Aluminum welding not difficult, just different
Some of the inherent problems associated with MIG welding of aluminum, compared to the welding of steel, are: feedability, incomplete fusion at the start of a weld, and crater or termination cracking at the ends of the weld.
Reversing the direction of travel at the end of a weld, increasing travel speed to reduce crater size, and providing suitable build-up and remolding the crater area flush with the weld surface by mechanical means are some of the methods which have been used.
Anderson says that even though the increased use of aluminum welding has promoted a demand within the industry for technically competent personnel, there remains a shortage of experienced welding engineers, technicians, inspectors, supervisors, and welders because aluminum welding has traditionally made up such a small part of the overall welding industry.

This was one of the clearest lunar eclipses ever observed, the imaged moon and umbra were distinct and with very good definition in the three video cameras used, although Peter Anderson reported with his crater timings and images that the sky transparency above Brisbane was not good.
The crater timings received from all observers have been reduced for umbral enlargement and umbral oblateness.
From the analysis of the many crater timings received the enlargement of the umbra was from 1.95 to 2.09 % very near the value expected.

Boulders cast from the mountain and blown down trees are compass needles pointing away from the crater’s devastating force, while the site interventions orient viewers directly toward the crater (photo: Andrew Buchanan).
The continuation of the spiritual journey—from earth to ether—is purely a metaphorical construct, yet standing on the fractured prow of the Johnston Ridge Observatory while confronting the apse (crater), visitors are connected to the powerful, terrifying and, ultimately, deeply beautiful face of the unknown.
These moves also met the goals of the collaboration between the public and private sector clients: an interdisciplinary design that was deferential to the mountain and its resources, yet evocative and expressive in its own right.
