TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used satellite remote sensing to examine patterns of cropland expansion and abandonment, and changing cropping frequency in Mato Grosso, Brazil from 2001 to 2011.

TL;DR: In this article, a spectral modeling of the OMEGA reflectance data was used to determine the modal mineralogy of selected low albedo terrains of different ages ranging from Noachian to Amazonian exposed on the surface of Mars.

TL;DR: The iMOST team as mentioned in this paper defined a set of science and engineering objectives for the Mars Sample Return (MSR) campaign and provided a framework for demonstrating how the first set of returned Martian samples would impact future Martian science and exploration.

TL;DR: In this paper, a specific data reduction scheme has been developed to remove the contribution of thermally emitted radiance from OMEGA spectra, which can be used to estimate the 3 μm hydration feature on the surface of Mars.

TL;DR: In this article, thermal infrared measurements of a suite of well-characterized Apollo lunar soils and a fine particulate (<25 µm) San Carlos olivine sample are systematically vary parameters that control the near-surface environment in our vacuum chamber (atmospheric pressure, incident solar-like radiation and sample cup temperature).
