Title
Remote sensing survey of Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex rocks and minerals for planetary analog use
Abstract
Motivated by the potential of using the Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex as an analog of the volcanic terrains of solar system objects, we mapped the mineralogy and silica content of the Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex up to ~100,000 square kilometers in northern Chile based on a combination of remote sensing data resembling those of the Moon and Mars.
