Remote Analysis of Regional Lunar Pyroclastic Deposits - Consistency and Precision of LRO Diviner EstimatesAllen et al. recently published a new method of estimating the FeO abundances of lunar pyroclastic deposits. This method is derived from orbital thermal infrared measurements by the Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment on the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) spacecraft. The present study utilizes Diviner data from the Taurus Littrow regional pyroclastic deposit to assess the consistency and precision of such estimates.
