Albedo map of the Compton Belkovich Volcanic Complex

Albedo map of the Compton Belkovich Volcanic Complex
Albedo map of the Compton Belkovich Volcanic Complex Albedo (w) map showing compositional variations in the Compton Belkovich Volcanic Complex. White outline in the NAC frame, left, corresponds to the region used to create the parameter map. Shadows appear black. Higher albedo values, which correspond to areas with less iron and titanium, are found in the central part of the complex (indicated by shades of yellow). The α and β domes labeled in the image likely have intermediate silicic compositions. NASA / GSFC / ASU / <a href="http://www.hou.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2016/pdf/1125.pdf">Clegg-Watkins (2016)</a>
