ARECIBO MOON RADIO TELESC RESAMPLED 70 CM RADAR MOSAIC V1.0

Listed in NASA Data Portal

High resolution radar map compiled from measurements made between 1981 and 1984 with the 70 cm wavelength radar at Arecibo Observatory.

Description

The data have resolutions ranging from 2 to 5 kilometers. The pixel spacing is 0.1 degrees in latitude and longitude.

The point at line 1000 and sample 1000 corresponds to 0 degrees latitude and 0 degrees longitude. The pixel values are scaled to represent 20

  • log10 (backscattered power). Observed power has been corrected for antenna beam, scattering area and scattering law. Observed power of 1000, which is the lunar average, thus has a value of 60 in the data set. Radar was transmitted in left-hand circular polarization, and both right-hand circular polarization (i.e. polarized) and left-hand circular polarization (i.e. depolarized) echoes were received.
