We experienced much success in reaching our stated goals in our original MDAP proposal. Our work made substantial contributions towards an integrated understanding of the counting and calibration of crater data on Mars, and changing nature of the Martian surface influenced by craters, water, and wind, and their general relationship to Martian geothermal history. We accomplished this while being to responsive to the rapid changes in the field brought about by several key NASA missions that returned data during the life of the grant. Our integrated effort included three stages: The first major area of research (Crater Count Research) was conducted by Jennifer Grier (P.I.), Lazslo Keszthelyi (Collaborator), William Hartmann (Collaborator), with assistance from Dan Berman (Graduate student) and concerned the mapping and the collection of crater count data on various Martian terrains. The second major area of study (Absolute Age Calibration) was conducted by William Bottke (Co-I) at SWRI, and concerned constraining the nature of the Moon and Mars impactor populations to create better absolute age calibrations for counted areas. The third major area of study was the integration and leverage of this effort with ongoing related Mars crater work at PSI (Integrated and Continuing Studies - Older Volcanoes), headed by David Crown (PSI Scientist), assisted by Les Bleamaster (PSI Scientist) and Dan Berman (Graduate Student).
