Description:
The relations between the identification of dominant lunar landforms, craters, and radar images at three resolutions are investigated. Although the percentage of craters that can be identified is found to increase with diameter or relief for any given resolution, it is noted that craters have not been identified at all diameters and relief. It is shown that the relation between the percentage of identified craters and their dimensions depends on the size-frequency distributions of both diameters and relief, and that crater identification depends strongly on the resolution of the radar image.
