Spectral Mapping of Mare Mosciviense, Lunar Farside, from Clementine Uvvis
Background: The Clementine mission provided the first high resolution mul-tispectral image data set of the far side of the Moon. While near side surface morphological units have been studied extensively from earth based spectral measurements, this is the first opportunity to examine the compositional properties of far side areas. Moscoviense is one of the prominent large impact basins on the lu...
متن کاملEstimation of Lunar Elemental Abundances Using Clementine UVVIS+NIR Data
Many attempts have been made to derive elemental abundances of the lunar surface from multispectral images. A method to predict Fe abundance based on Clementine UVVIS data is presented in [1]. A refined method which also addresses the TiO2 abundance is provided in [2], demonstrating that in spite of issues posed by soil maturity, grain size, mineral content, topographic shading, and glass conte...
متن کاملNew Method of Photometric Correction for Lunar Uvvis Images
Introduction: An accurate phase function is necessary for precise photometric correction of the Clementine lunar UVVIS images. Although several researchers have proposed photometric models for Clementine UVVIS images using empirical phase functions (e.g., [1] [2] [3]), additional work is required for correction of the data at small phase angle (<20), because the phase function at small phase an...
متن کاملEstimates of the Lunar Surface Composition with Clementine Images and Lscc
Introduction: There have been several approaches to develop remote sensing technique to estimate composition of the lunar surface using multispectral observations. We present a new approach based on statistical analysis of spectral and compositional data for lunar samples by the Lunar Soil Characterization Consortium (LSCC) and using the UVVIS Clementine data with 1 km resolution. This techniqu...
متن کاملDistinguishing high-alumina mare basalts using Clementine UVVIS and Lunar Prospector GRS data: Mare Moscoviense and Mare Nectaris
[1] High-alumina (HA) mare basalts are a unique group of the lunar sample collection. Sample geochemistry indicates that these basalts are derived from sources composed of late-stage cumulates from the Lunar Magma Ocean (LMO). Their aluminous nature suggests their sources contained significant plagioclase, which has implications regarding the efficiency of plagioclase separation from earlier fo...
