  3. Discussion: 1) reflection/refraction of light from surfaces (surface interactions) 2) volume interactions - resonance - electronic interactions - vibrational interactions 3) spectroscopy - continuum vs. resonance bands - spectral “mining” - continuum analysis 4) spectra of common Earth-surface materials

  4. Spectra vary with composition Minerals Ices CaCO3 MgCO3 Be3Al2(SiO3)6 CaSO42(H2O) KAl(SO4)212H2O KFe+33(OH)6(SO4)2

  5. Fig 2.21, Siegal & Gillespie For silica in TIR Molecular vibration modes in silicates affect the thermal infrared Thermal infrared silicates

  6. Reflectance spectrum of SiO2 in the TIR QUARTZ: SiO2 The doubled peak is due to crystallographic asymmetry (hexagonal) in quartz The silica tetrahedron is distorted in quartz: the Si-O bond down the c-axis has a different length than it does across it

  7. Phase affects spectra Bands don’t broaden much as ice turns to water Band centers shift subtly Amount of absorption increases with optical length z in Beer’s law (e-kz) – there are no grain interfaces in water. This is a particle size affect Low water content Ice – liquid transition for water High water content

  8. Particle size affects spectra Fine particles – spectra dominated by surface reflection Coarse particles – spectra dominated by absorption inside grains High surface/volume ratio Path is shorter Low surface/volume ratio Average optical path is long

  9. Particle size affects spectra Pyroxene H2O XY(Si,Al)2O6

  10. Spectral resolution: multispectral remote sensing vs. imaging spectroscopy KAl(SO4)212H2O Imaging spectroscopy is more likely to resolve absorption bands

  11. Spatial resolution also affects spectra (by mixing) KFe+33(OH)6(SO4)2 KAl(SO4)212H2O Areal (checkerboard) mixing: additive Intimate mixing: “subtractive”

  12. Intimate mixing can be highly non-linear Adding highly absorptive charcoal greatly reduces the optical path length (“z” in Beer’s Law: e-kz) A small amount has a large effect Larger amounts have diminishing effect

  13. Spectroscopy considerations - continuum vs. resonance bands Absorption bands are measured relative to the “continuum” – the value of the spectrum if the absorption band was not present

  14. Discussion: 1) reflection/refraction of light from surfaces (surface interactions) 2) volume interactions - resonance - electronic interactions - vibrational interactions 3) spectroscopy - continuum vs. resonance bands - spectral “mining” - continuum analysis 4) spectra of common Earth-surface materials

  15. SOIL Path length Clay H2O Fe-O Water absorption Spectra of common Earth-surface materials

  16. Green Vegetation Water absorption Chlorophyll absorption Cellular scattering Spectra of common Earth-surface materials

  17. Dry Vegetation Cellulose Water absorption Cellular scattering Spectra of common Earth-surface materials Chlorophyll absorption

  18. Leaf structure and its relation to spectra Absorption band in red: chlorophyll pigment Reflective NIR: scattering in the prismatic leaf cells SWIR absorption: absorption by leaf water
