Congratulations to Mike, whose paper "The Benefits of High Resolution Multispectral TIR Data and Its Impending Loss by NASA After Four Decades" has been selected by the Perspectives editorial board for a special feature on AGU's social media platforms. This is a rare honor as fewer than 2% of AGU papers are chosen for this kind of spotlight. To read more see the AGU features website.
This graphic from his paper shows the mineralogical mapping of the Salton Sea region of CA produced using the SBG‐TIR Surface Mineralogy (SM) algorithm applied to airborne MASTER TIR data. (Left) Quartz, microcline, andesine mineral endmembers are shown in R,G,B, respectively highlighting the Algodones Dunes in yellow to orange. (Right) Weight percent silica map ranging from zero (black) to 74% (white). Each image is 35 km wide.
