Global Study of Small-scale Color Features on 433 Eros, the Effect of Residual Scattered Light and Implications for Ponded Deposit Formation Mechanisms
Introduction: Utilizing all viable MSI color image sequences, we cataloged every resolvable spectral/albedo unit on Eros: high reflectance streaks, dark soils, ponded deposits and average regolith. This complete catalog increases our understanding of regolith processes on Eros and provides additional constraints on understanding the significance of compositional and maturity variations on airle...
متن کاملMapping Lineaments on 433eros: Process, Results, Implications
Introduction: The Near-Earth Asteroid Rendezvous NEAR-Shoemaker spacecraft orbited the asteroid 433Eros for a year from 2000-2001. The NEAR Multi-Spectral Imager (MSI) collected tens of thousands of high resolution images and as a result Eros is the most comprehensively studied asteroid in the solar system. Previous mapping of lineaments on Eros has supported the suggestion of planes throughout...
متن کاملUnderstanding Regolith Distribution on 433 Eros Using Analyses of Pit Chains
Introduction: From 2000 to 2001 the Near-Earth Asteroid Rendezvous NEAR-Shoemaker spacecraft orbited the asteroid 433Eros. Tens of thousands of high resolution images were collected in that year by the NEAR Multi-Spectral Imager (MSI). These images revealed that Eros is criss-crossed by hundreds of lineations, including both extensional and contractional features. A global database of all Eros ...
متن کاملSpectral properties and rotational spectral heterogeneity of 433 Eros
Composite spectra of different rotational aspects of the S asteroid 433 Eros were assembled from previous studies, covering the wavelength range 0ø33-2.5 grn. These data allow us to measure significant attributes of Eros's spectrum• its mafic mineral absorptions, and the degree and nature of compositional heterogeneity of its surfaceo We also evaluated previous Sasteroid taxonomies using indepe...
متن کاملSpatial resolution effects of remote sensing images on digital soil models in aquatic ecosystems
The incorporation of remote sensing (RS) data into digital soil models has shown success to improve soil predictions. However, the effects of multi-resolution imagery on modeling of biogeochemical soil properties in aquatic ecosystems are still poorly understood. The objectives of this study were to (i) develop prediction models for various soil properties (total phosphorus, nitrogen, and carbo...
