Quantitative models derived for surficial processes on Earth are often applied to other planetary bodies, providing critical insights into the geologic history of the Solar System. Extraterrestrial surfaces present opportunities to test these models under conditions that are often unachievable on Earth or in the laboratory. This session’s goal is to explore the interplays between quantitative models of planetary surface processes and the challenges imposed on these models by new planetary data. We invite contributions in the field of planetary surface processes that use planetary analogues, laboratory experiments, theoretical and numerical modeling, and planetary-exploration data from robotic spacecraft. We intend for this session to foster more collaboration between members of the PS and EPSP sections.
