New insight into the composition of the lunar surface from SiO2 map
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space SciencesThe distribution of FeO and TiO2 reveals mantle source characteristics and basaltic diversity, whereas SiO2 distribution is closely related to magma evolution and crustal differentiation. However, global studies on SiO2 remain limited.

Selecting a Superior Landing Area in the Region Far From Procellarum KREEP Terrane
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote SensingThe area far from the Procellarum KREEP Terrane (PKT) is important for future landing exploration. Mare Crisium, located in the area, has been identified as an essential landing option for the Lunar Geophysical Network (LGN) mission.

New Maps of Lunar Surface Oxide Abundances and Mg# Using an Optimized Ensemble Learning Algorithm
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote SensingThe oxide abundance and Mg# (Mg/(Mg + Fe)) of the lunar surface are critical for understanding the Moon's petrology and evolution. Previous studies primarily relied on a single remote sensing data source and traditional regression algorithms for ...
