Spectral reflectance properties of zeolites and remote sensing implications
(Journal of Geophysical Research, 2002-09-25)
The 0.3- to 26-μm reflectance spectra of a suite of 28 zeolites were measured and analyzed to derive spectral-compositional-structural relationships. Below ~7 μm, the spectra are largely dominated by absorption features ...
Detection of rotational spectral variation on the M-type asteroid (16) Psyche
(The Astronomical Journal, 2016-12-28)
The asteroid (16) Psyche is of scientific interest because it contains ∼1% of the total mass of the asteroid belt and is thought to be the remnant metallic core of a protoplanet. Radar observations have indicated the ...
Analysis of Historical Evidence of Climate Change in Western and Northern Canada
(National Museum of Natural Sciences Project on Climatic Change in Canada During the Past 20,000 Years, 1981)
Analysis of historical climatic evidence, now in progress at the Universities of Manitoba and Winnipeg, are based entirely upon Hudson's Bay Company records. The objective is to thoroughly explore the utility of this ...
Access to Environmental Justice: A Manitoba Toolkit for Improving Public Participation; Final Project Report, February 2021
(Manitoba Eco-network, The University of Winnipeg, and Public Interest Law Centre, 2021-02)
This final report details the implementation of the Manitoba Law Foundation funded project: Access to Environmental Justice: A Manitoba Toolkit for Improving Public Participation. The project materialized as a 6-part public ...
Submicroscopic metallic iron in lunar soils estimated from the in situ spectra of the Chang’E-3 mission
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2017-04-22)
Submicroscopic metallic iron (SMFe) created by space weathering has strong effects on the optical properties of the lunar surface. Spectra measured in situ by the visible-near-infrared spectrometer (VNIS) on board the ...
Stability of hydrated minerals on Mars
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2007-10-20)
The validity of recent identification of various hydrated minerals (kieserite, gypsum, hexahydrite, nontronite, chamosite, and montmorillonite) on Mars was assessed by exposing these minerals to simulated Martian surface ...
Reflectance spectra of "featureless" materials and the surface mineralogies of M- and E-class asteroids
(Journal of Geophysical Research, 1990-01-10)
The 0.3- to 2.6-μm reflectance spectra of meteoritic enstatite (nearly pure MgSiO3), iron meteorite metal, magnetite and amorphous carbon, and various mixtures of these materials with mafic silicates have been measured in ...
A Deep Learning Framework: Land-Use/Land-Cover Mapping and Analysis using Multispectral Satellite Imagery
(Springer, 2019-07-17)
In this article, we present an approach to land-use and land-cover (LULC) mapping from multispectral satellite images using deep learning methods. The terms satellite image classification and map production, although used ...
Hydrological and seasonal controls of phosphorus in Northern Great Plains agricultural streams
(Alliance of Crop, Soil., and Environmental Science Societies, 2019)
Controls on nutrient transport in cold, low relief agricultural regions vary dramatically among seasons. The spring snowmelt is often the dominant runoff and nutrient loading event of the year. However, climate change may ...
Oxo Crater on (1) Ceres: Geological History and the Role of Water-ice
(The Astronomical Journal, 2017-08-04)
Dwarf planet Ceres (∅ ∼ 940 km) is the largest object in the main asteroid belt. Investigations suggest that Ceres is a thermally evolved, volatile-rich body with potential geological activity, a body that was never ...
