DMAAC – February 1973
LUNAR TOPOGRAPHIC ORTHOPHOTOMAP (LTO) AND LUNAR ORTHOPHOTMAP (LO) SERIES (Published by DMATC) Lunar Topographic Orthophotmaps and Lunar Orthophotomaps Scale: 1:250,000 Projection: Transverse Mercator Sheet Size: 25.5”x 26.5” The Lunar Topographic Orthophotmaps and Lunar Orthophotomaps Series are the first comprehensive and continuous mapping to be accomplished from Apollo Mission 15-17 mapping photographs. This series is also the first major effort to apply recent advances in orthophotography to lunar mapping. Presently developed maps of this series were designed to support initial lunar scientific investigations primarily employing results of Apollo Mission 15-17 data. Individual maps of this series cover 4 degrees of lunar latitude and 5 degrees of lunar longitude consisting of 1/16 of the area of a 1:1,000,000 scale Lunar Astronautical Chart (LAC) (Section 4.2.1). Their apha-numeric identification (example – LTO38B1) consists of the designator LTO for topographic orthophoto editions or LO for orthophoto editions followed by the LAC number in which they fall, followed by an A, B, C or D designator defining the pertinent LAC quadrant and a 1, 2, 3, or 4 designator defining the specific sub-quadrant actually covered. The following designation (250) identifies the sheets as being at 1:250,000 scale. The LTO editions display 100-meter contours, 50-meter supplemental contours and spot elevations in a red overprint to the base, which is lithographed in black and white. LO editions are identical except that all relief information is omitted and selenographic graticule is restricted to border ticks, presenting an umencumbered view of lunar features imaged by the photographic base. -

HANAGAN SPRING 2019 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in the Geosciences with honors in the Geosciences Reviewed and approved* by the following: Peter La Femina Associate Professor of Geosciences Thesis Supervisor Maureen Feineman Associate Research Professor and Associate Head for Undergraduate Programs Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT Telica is a persistently active basaltic-andesite stratovolcano in the Central American Volcanic Arc of Nicaragua. Poorly predicted sub-decadal, low explosivity (VEI 1-2) phreatic eruptions and background persistent activity with high-rates of seismic unrest and frequent degassing contribute to morphologic change in Telica’s active crater on a small spatiotemporal scale. These changes sustain a morphology similar to those of commonly recognized calderas or pit craters (Roche et al., 2001; Rymer et al., 1998), and have been related to sealing of the hydrothermal system prior to eruption (INETER Buletin Anual, 2013). We use photograph observations and Structure from Motion point cloud construction and comparison (Multiscale Model to Model Cloud Comparison, Lague et al., 2013; Westoby et al., 2012) from 1994 to 2017 to correlate changes in Telica’s crater with sustained summit crater formation and eruptive pre- cursors. Two previously proposed mechanisms for sealing at Telica are: 1) widespread hydrothermal mineralization throughout the magmatic-hydrothermal system (Geirsson et al., 2014; Rodgers et al., 2015; Roman et al., 2016); and/or 2) surficial blocking of the vent by landslides and rock fall (INETER Buletin Anual, 2013). -

New Views of Lunar Geoscience: an Introduction and Overview Harald Hiesinger and James W
Reviews in Mineralogy & Geochemistry Vol. 60, pp. XXX-XXX, 2006 1 Copyright © Mineralogical Society of America New Views of Lunar Geoscience: An Introduction and Overview Harald Hiesinger and James W. Head III Department of Geological Sciences Brown University Box 1846 Providence, Rhode Island, 02912, U.S.A. [email protected] [email protected] 1.1. INTRODUCTION Beyond the Earth, the Moon is the only planetary body for which we have samples from known locations. The analysis of these samples gives us “ground-truth” for numerous remote sensing studies of the physical and chemical properties of the Moon and they are invaluable for our fundamental understanding of lunar origin and evolution. Prior to the return of the Apollo 11 samples, the Moon was thought by many to be a primitive undifferentiated body (e.g., Urey 1966), a concept shattered by the data returned from the Apollo and Luna missions. Ever since, new data have helped to address some of our questions, but of course, they also produced new questions. In this chapter we provide a summary of knowledge about lunar geologic processes and we describe major scientifi c advancements of the last decade that are mainly related to the most recent lunar missions such as Galileo, Clementine, and Lunar Prospector. 1.1.1. The Moon in the planetary context Compared to terrestrial planets, the Moon is unique in terms of its bulk density, its size, and its origin (FFig.ig. 11.1.1a-c), all of which have profound effects on its thermal evolution and the formation of a secondary crust (Fig.
