Abstract
For the application in remote sensing, spectral features have to be correlated with compositional characteristics of the materials. The dominating RB in the 7-14 µm range correlates well with the SiO2 content, the Christiansen Feature shows similar dependencies. To distinguish between glass and crystalline phases of the same chemical composition, a comparison between CF the SCFM index (SiO2/(SiO2 + CaO + FeO + MgO)) (Walter and Salisbury [1989] J. Geophys. Res., 94, 9203-9213) is useful, if chemical compositional data are also available.
