Clementine LWIR
Brightness Temperature Images
This archive contains
lunar brightness temperature data derived from images
acquired by the Clementine Long Wavelength Infrared (LWIR)
camera. The LWIR camera acquired approximately 220,000
thermal-infrared images of the lunar surface. A complete
description of the online volume structure and the image
file format is in the file
VOLSIS.TXT in the DOCUMENT directory. The
Clementine LWIR brightness temperature data set was
produced by Dr. Stefanie L. Lawson, Los Alamos National
Laboratory, Los Alamos, New Mexico and Dr. Bruce M.
Jakosky, University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado.
These images have
attached PDS labels and can be displayed with the PDS
software
NASAView.
The procedure for
generating brightness temperature values can be
summarized as follows: 1) original LWIR digital numbers
were converted to radiance; 2) the dark current signal
was subtracted from the radiance values; 3) a flat field
correction was applied; 4) bad pixels were identified
and smoothed over; and 5) calibrated radiance values
were converted to brightness temperatures using the
Planck function. Details of the processing are given in
Lawson et al. (Journal of Geophysical Research, v. 105,
pp. 4273-4290, 2000).
