		Whereas temperatures on the rim of the crater are usually chilly and the atmosphere foggy, halfway down the crater it brightens up and becomes savannah warm at the bottom of the crater.
		Animals are free to leave or enter the crater but most of them stay because of the water and food plentiful in the crater floor throughout the year.
		Main highlights of this route are lush forests, the scenery and the wildflowers at Maundi crater and the views of the Kibo and Mawenzi peaks.

		The Lonar crater and lake form not only a spectacular sight but over the centuries they have evolved an ecosystem that is not replicated anywhere else in the state.
		The surface diameter of the crater is 1.80 kms while the crater itself is nearly 132 meters deep.
		There is a local belief that the crater itself is the body of the genius loci, the goddess Lonar Devi and she does not take kindly to construction on her sides.

	Parrot Portfolio II
		The World Parrot Trust and its members wish to be recognised as the 'True Friends of the Parrots', and to win over the majority of aviculturists to its point of view.
		When the World Parrot Trust began to support this species in 1990 it was the least numerous parrot in the world, with only about 15 individuals left in the wild and none in captivity.
		In 1994 we were able to send one of our four Parrot Buses (created in partnership with Paul Butler of RARE Centre) to St Vincent, where it is used to educate the island's children about the importance of preserving the remaining rainforest, not just for the parrots, but to ensure the island's water supply.

		Pesquet's parrots were the only species to entirely excavate their own hollows; they used the trunks of dead trees, but their hollows had entrances that opened horizontally.
		Eclectus Parrots were the most successful at fledging young - 54% of all eggs laid (in 66% of broods) resulted in a fledgling.

		The bleakness of the situation that many parrots and their natural environment faced initiated a struggle that eventually led to the establishment of a parrot conservation foundation.
		The main objectives of the foundation encompass the conduct of captive research and environmental education programmes, the captive breeding of parrots, and the collaboration in and financial support of parrot field conservation programmes.
		There are three ways in which the breeding and sale of parrots by Loro Parque Fundación can contribute to the huge task of saving some of the threatened species of our planet: First, the parrot collection of LPF functions as a genetic reserve and as a safety net for species endangered in the wild state.

		The rock was re-formed 2.8 billion years ago in an impact that carved the Lalande crater, creating a blanket of ejected material.
		Also, it would be bright, since it was newer and would not have weathered as much as older craters in the region.
		Gnos allows that the crater fits the data only if the study's assumptions are correct, and he agrees that the location is not as well-determined as with the older and larger Imbrium and Lalande events.

		Tom Pierson, a geologist with the U.S. Geological Survey, or USGS, told NBC News that no ash was in the release, attributing the darker colors of some clouds to the presence of magma near the surface, which made the steam appear darker.
		With the latest rising, an area of the crater floor just south of the nearly 1,000-foot lava dome has risen about 250 feet since the mountain began stirring two weeks ago, Lowenstern said, adding that there was no way to tell when magma might reach the surface.
		Scientists planned to make another flight over the volcano’s crater Thursday to sample gas emissions and take thermal images and to continue preparing instruments on the mountain for the winter.

		In this connection it is interesting to note that a very considerable number of plants of common occurrence within that part of the Crater wall nearest to the island have not as yet made their way across the narrow water barrier.
		Within the crater, and especially at its bottom, where soil and moisture conditions are of the most favorable for their growth and maintenance, are to be found some of the more shallow rooted forms, such as grasses, sedges, rushes and Tolmie's Saxifrage (Saxifraga tolmiei T. and G.).
		While a considerable proportion of the species are more or less generally distributed, certain ones occur in greater abundance either on the exposed, steeper slopes toward the summit, or within the less precipitous areas about the base.

	Rover sends 3-D vista from crater's rim - Return to the Red Planet - MSNBC.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Opportunity's arrival at the crater's edge on Friday represented the climax of a 2,600-foot (780-meter) odyssey that took the rover from its landing site in Eagle Crater, which is only about a fifth the size of Endurance Crater.
		Both craters lie within an Oklahoma-sized plain called Meridiani Planum, which scientists suspect was once at the bottom of a salty sea, back when Mars was warmer, wetter and perhaps more hospitable to life.
		Endurance Crater is about 82 feet (25 meters) deep — much deeper than Eagle Crater — and that means Endurance's bedrock could provide much more information about how long liquid water may have existed on a planet that is now cold, dry and barren.

		Using the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) onboard the ESA orbiter, scientists are trying to evaluate how the crater’s central feature was shaped and what kind of processes led to it formation.
		It is thought that the remnant hill could be composed of material from underground or was built as a result of atmospheric deposition.
		The tall feature in the center of this hill is the central peak of the crater, which forms when the surface material ‘rebounds’ after being compressed during the formation of an impact crater.
