  • Glossary Glossary
    Glossary Glossary Albedo A measure of an object’s reflectivity. A pure white reflecting surface has an albedo of 1.0 (100%). A pitch-black, nonreflecting surface has an albedo of 0.0. The Moon is a fairly dark object with a combined albedo of 0.07 (reflecting 7% of the sunlight that falls upon it). The albedo range of the lunar maria is between 0.05 and 0.08. The brighter highlands have an albedo range from 0.09 to 0.15. Anorthosite Rocks rich in the mineral feldspar, making up much of the Moon’s bright highland regions. Aperture The diameter of a telescope’s objective lens or primary mirror. Apogee The point in the Moon’s orbit where it is furthest from the Earth. At apogee, the Moon can reach a maximum distance of 406,700 km from the Earth. Apollo The manned lunar program of the United States. Between July 1969 and December 1972, six Apollo missions landed on the Moon, allowing a total of 12 astronauts to explore its surface. Asteroid A minor planet. A large solid body of rock in orbit around the Sun. Banded crater A crater that displays dusky linear tracts on its inner walls and/or floor. 250 Basalt A dark, fine-grained volcanic rock, low in silicon, with a low viscosity. Basaltic material fills many of the Moon’s major basins, especially on the near side. Glossary Basin A very large circular impact structure (usually comprising multiple concentric rings) that usually displays some degree of flooding with lava. The largest and most conspicuous lava- flooded basins on the Moon are found on the near side, and most are filled to their outer edges with mare basalts.

  • Gemeinsame Stellungnahme
    10.10.2018 Gemeinsame Stellungnahme Der agl-Konzeptvorschlag zur Rohstoffsicherung in der Vulkaneifel - Fakten, Kritik, Wertung - Zusammenfassung und Wertung Von der Vielzahl der Lagerstätten mit Lava und Basalt des Landkreises Vulkaneifel hat das Landesamt für Geologie (LGB) 46 Lagerstätten als Rohstoffpotenzialflächen in einer Karte dargestellt. Dabei wurde, anders als bisher, keine Nutzungsempfehlung (Vorrang- bzw. Vor- behaltsgebiet) ausgesprochen. Diese Vorgehensweise ist zu begrüßen, da sie zu einer freieren und sachgerechteren Entscheidung durch die Entscheidungsträger beiträgt. Von den 46 erfass- ten Potenzialflächen werden 13 überhaupt nicht für den Rohstoffabbau in Anspruch genom- men. An weiteren 14 wird der Abbau nur noch in dem bereits genehmigten Umfang fortge- führt. Dadurch bleibt eine Vielzahl unverzichtbarer Landschaftselemente erhalten, die durch die früheren Vorschläge für den neuen Raumordnungsplan (ROPneu) akut gefährdet waren. Zu begrüßen ist die Ausweisung eines Gebietes, in dem über den genehmigten Umfang hinaus ein weiterer Gesteinsabbau ausgeschlossen wird. In der vorgeschlagenen Abgrenzung ge- währleistet das Gebiet jedoch nicht den Erhalt des charakteristischen Aussehens der hiesigen Vulkanlandschaft. Es ist daher entsprechend dieser Zielsetzung zu arrondieren. Die 19 für einen Abbau bzw. künftigen Abbau vorgeschlagenen Flächen (Vorranggebiete für die Rohstoffgewinnung bzw. Vorranggebiete für die vorsorgende Rohstoffsicherung und Vorbehaltsgebiete) sind zumeist auf landschaftlich bereits stark vorgeschädigte

  • 50 Years of Petrology
    spe500-01 1st pgs page 1 The Geological Society of America 18888 201320 Special Paper 500 2013 CELEBRATING ADVANCES IN GEOSCIENCE Plates, planets, and phase changes: 50 years of petrology David Walker* Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Columbia University, Palisades, New York 10964, USA ABSTRACT Three advances of the previous half-century fundamentally altered petrology, along with the rest of the Earth sciences. Planetary exploration, plate tectonics, and a plethora of new tools all changed the way we understand, and the way we explore, our natural world. And yet the same large questions in petrology remain the same large questions. We now have more information and understanding, but we still wish to know the following. How do we account for the variety of rock types that are found? What does the variety and distribution of these materials in time and space tell us? Have there been secular changes to these patterns, and are there future implications? This review examines these bigger questions in the context of our new understand- ings and suggests the extent to which these questions have been answered. We now do know how the early evolution of planets can proceed from examples other than Earth, how the broad rock cycle of the present plate tectonic regime of Earth works, how the lithosphere atmosphere hydrosphere and biosphere have some connections to each other, and how our resources depend on all these things. We have learned that small planets, whose early histories have not been erased, go through a wholesale igneous processing essentially coeval with their formation.

  • Wenn Es Unter Den Maaren Brodelt. Das
    Forschung aktuell Wenn es unter den Maaren brodelt Das Eifelvulkanfeld ist noch lebendig ie Vulkane der Eifel sind weltweit bekannt und für DGeowissenschaftler von großer Bedeutung. Seit der Gründung des »Vulkaneifel European Geopark« sind die Vulkane nun auch zu einer Attraktion für Ur- lauber geworden. Besucher aus Deutschland, Belgien und den Niederlanden bewundern in zunehmender Zahl die geologischen Schätze, die lange Zeit nur von der Baustoffi ndustrie genutzt wurden. Die Geowissen- schaften und die Faszination, die von der gewaltigen Kraft der Erde ausgeht, sind nun ein populäres Thema. Von den neuen Geo-Touristen als auch von den An- wohnern der Region kommen viele Fragen: Insbeson- dere wollen sie wissen, ob das Vulkanfeld ausgestorben ist oder sich nur in einer Ruhephase befi ndet. Und falls weitere Ausbrüche möglich wären, folgen eine gan- ze Reihe weiterer Fragen: Wo wird es losgehen? Wie wird eine Eruption aussehen? Wird sie groß oder klein sein? Ist das Katastrophen-Szenario in dem Buch »Die Flucht der Ameisen«/1/ realistisch? Die Eifel lässt sich in zwei kleinere Gebiete aufteilen: die Ost-Eifel rund um den Laacher See und die West- Eifel, die sich von der belgischen Grenze circa 50 Ki- lometer bis fast ins Moselletal im Südosten ausstreckt. Geowissenschaftler haben etwa 100 vulkanische Zent- ren in der Ost-Eifel und 250 Zentren in der West-Eifel identifi ziert./2/ 1 Die letzte vulkanische Aktivität in der Ost-Eifel war vor 12 900 Jahren. Damals gab es eine riesige Eruption, die den Laacher See gebildet hat. In der West-Eifel ist das Ulmener Maar, östlich von Gerol- 1 Die Maare in der Vulkaneifel sehen an der Oberfl äche ruhig aus.

  • Appendix I Lunar and Martian Nomenclature
    APPENDIX I LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE A large number of names of craters and other features on the Moon and Mars, were accepted by the IAU General Assemblies X (Moscow, 1958), XI (Berkeley, 1961), XII (Hamburg, 1964), XIV (Brighton, 1970), and XV (Sydney, 1973). The names were suggested by the appropriate IAU Commissions (16 and 17). In particular the Lunar names accepted at the XIVth and XVth General Assemblies were recommended by the 'Working Group on Lunar Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr D. H. Menzel. The Martian names were suggested by the 'Working Group on Martian Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr G. de Vaucouleurs. At the XVth General Assembly a new 'Working Group on Planetary System Nomenclature' was formed (Chairman: Dr P. M. Millman) comprising various Task Groups, one for each particular subject. For further references see: [AU Trans. X, 259-263, 1960; XIB, 236-238, 1962; Xlffi, 203-204, 1966; xnffi, 99-105, 1968; XIVB, 63, 129, 139, 1971; Space Sci. Rev. 12, 136-186, 1971.
