Radiative Transfer Modeling of Compositions of Lunar Pyroclastic Deposits
Introduction: While over 100 lunar pyroclastic deposits have been identified remotely [1], their compositions remain poorly constrained. In this work, we attempt to determine the compositions of three lunar pyroclastic deposits for which we have high-quality spectra: the Aristarchus Plateau, Mare Humorum, and Sulpicius Gallus [2]. The spectral behavior of lunar pyroclastic deposits is a combina...
متن کاملCompositional analyses of small lunar pyroclastic deposits using Clementine multispectral data
Clementine ultraviolet-visible (UVVIS) data are used to examine the compositions of 18 pyroclastic deposits (15 small, three large) at 13 sites on the Moon. Compositional variations among pyroclastic deposits largely result from differing amounts of new basaltic (or juvenile) matehal and reworked local matehal entrained in their ejecta upon eruption. Characterization of pyroclastic deposit comp...

متن کاملGeologic setting of serpentine deposits on Mars
[1] Serpentine, recently discovered on Mars using Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter data, is uncommon but found in three geologic settings: (1) in mélange terrains at the Claritas Rise and the Nili Fossae, (2) associated with a few southern highlands impact craters, and (3) associated with a regional olivine‐rich stratigraphic unit near the Isidis basin. Any presently active serpentinization processe...
