Regolith Texture

Regolith Texture is a physical property characterizing the size, shape, sorting, and arrangement of constituent mineral particles within unconsolidated surface material on planetary bodies, distinguishing it from other regolith properties by its direct influence on mechanical behavior, thermal conductivity, and interaction with spacecraft or rovers.
