Extracting Martian Meteorite Mineral Spectra for Remote Sensing of the Surface Geology of Mars

The source craters of the Martian meteorites remain unknown. This PhD extracted pyroxene mid-infrared spectra directly from the shergottites to supplement the current spectral libraries in modelling the geology of the Martian surface. Models using planet-representative spectral end members improves...
