Evidence that Lake Cheko is not an impact crater

In a provocative paper Gasperini et al. (2007) suggest that Lake Cheko, a ~300-m-wide lake situated a few kilometres downrange from the assumed epicentre of the 1908 Tunguska event, is an impact crater. In this response, we present several lines of observational evidence that contradicts the impact...
