This shift forms the basis for using the thermal bands of ASTER to map lithology
John Berry Assocs. 5000 Beverly Hills Dr. AUSTIN, TX 78731 +1- 512 - 452 - 8068 jlbassoc@flash.net Thermal emissivity spectra of some important minerals convolved with the ASTER thermal bands, superimposed on each other by normal- izing to a value of 1.0 at 8.0 um (Band 10). The spectral curves differ even more than those for rocks. Thus alteration zones char- acterized by these minerals can be map- ped using ASTER TIR.
John Berry Assocs. 5000 Beverly Hills Dr. AUSTIN, TX 78731 +1- 512 - 452 - 8068 jlbassoc@flash.net Green Red Minerals are widely separated on this plot, and would show up as green (Dunite) to orange (Albite) if Band 13 were assigned to Greeen and Band 12 to Red.
John Berry Assocs. 5000 Beverly Hills Dr. AUSTIN, TX 78731 +1- 512 - 452 - 8068 jlbassoc@flash.net The linear distribution shows that there is a strong correlation between the emisssivity spectra of different minerals in bands 13 and 14, a phen- omenon that is also seen in the SWIR region, but for vegetation spectra. This means that in an image, dunite (olivine) would be dark and quartz would be bright, but they would have the same color. This is therefore NOT a good band combination Using ratio composites (next slide) helps to spread the data points out in color space, giving better discrimination

It shows that good separation of the minerals in color space can be achieved using Thermal band ratios.

The overall variation in the image is from red to green, with little blue: this reflects the linearity of the distribution of points on the previous slide.
