Mark A. Wieczorek,Bradley L. Jolliff,Amir Khan,Matthew E. Pritchard,Benjamin P. Weiss,James G. Williams,Lon L. Hood,Kevin Righter,Clive R. Neal,Charles K. Shearer,I. Stewart McCallum,Stephanie Tompkins,B. Ray Hawke,C. A. Peterson,Jeffrey J. Gillis,Ben Bussey +15 more
TL;DR: The current state of understanding of the lunar interior is the sum of nearly four decades of work and a range of exploration programs spanning that same time period as discussed by the authors, which is the framework that unifies our knowledge of the structure and composition of the Moon.

TL;DR: The early views of the Moon manifested in mythology and art throughout the world were primarily tied to lunar and terrestrial cycles and the relationships between the Sun and the Moon as mentioned in this paper, and many of these early views were associated with the violent or catastrophic events in which the Moon was expunged from the Earth.

A satellite geodetic survey of large-scale deformation of volcanic centres in the central Andes
Matthew E. Pritchard,Mark Simons +1 more
TL;DR: A satellite-based interferometric synthetic aperture radar survey of the remote central Andes volcanic arc reveals the background level of activity of about 900 volcanoes, 50 of which have been classified as potentially active, and finds four centres of broad, roughly axisymmetric surface deformation.
Journal ArticleDOI
An InSAR‐based survey of volcanic deformation in the central Andes
Matthew E. Pritchard,Mark Simons +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extend an earlier interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) survey covering about 900 remote volcanos of the central Andes (14°-27°S) between the years 1992 and 2002.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global link between deformation and volcanic eruption quantified by satellite imagery
Juliet Biggs,Susanna K Ebmeier,Willy Aspinall,Zhong Lu,Matthew E. Pritchard,R. S. J. Sparks,Tamsin A. Mather +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that, of the 198 volcanoes systematically observed for the past 18 years, 54 deformed, of which 25 also erupted, for assessing eruption potential, and this high proportion of deforming volcanoes that also erupted jointly represent indicators with ‘strong’ evidential worth.
