Hello Listers
I have a good question about the average size of a Strewn Fields. A good example would be the Buzzard Coulees fall in 2008. Whats the size of the Buzzard Coulees Strewn Field and the collected amount of weight so far from that fall? Why I ask is because there could be a pattern with size of meteorites, the amount of meteorites recovered, or the lack there of, and one might be able to predict the size of the Strewn Field even if there is only one or two meteorite pieces recovered. This average could be applied to the Lorton Fall a few months ago in Virgina, which to this date only one individual pieces has been recovered at 318g. One could suggest that the Lorton piece could be the main mass and calculate the mean average of the strewn field that could result from this weight with other falls with the average mean main mass being around 318g. By doing this and also cross referencing with other falls that have a mean average weight from the main mass and TKW recovered could this predict the average size of the strewn field as long as the class of the meteorites falls are in the same category? Lastly I am wondering whats the size of the Allende, Brenham, and Ask Creek strewn field in addition to Buzzard Coulees strewn field size?
