This paper first reviews the effects of impactor, target, and atmospheric environment on ejecta facies morphology in the laboratory. The effect of these variables on ejecta curtain evolution next allows correlation with the dynamics of ejecta-atmosphere interactions. Ejecta dynamics and ejecta morphology are then considered in terms of processes of ejecta emplacement, thereby forming a basis for physical models (analogous to turbidity flows) developed in the final discussion section. Analysis of the laboratory results can then be applied to ejecta emplacement styles on Mars where the range in lithologies and atmospheric conditions allows a unique test for the derived models.
