Wavelet Methods

Gamma-ray spectrum analysis was essential for radioactive environmental monitoring, and it had been widely used in many areas of nuclear engineering. However, for the low-energy region of gamma-ray spectrum, weak peaks were contained in the fast-decreasing background, so it was difficult to extract characteristic information from original spectra. In order to get a better analytic result based on wavelet methods in frequency domain, we had processed the gamma-ray spectrometer data of Chang’E-1 and well extracted some useful information of spectral characteristic peaks. Then, we preliminarily mapped the distribution of net peak counts for potassium on lunar surface, which indirectly reflected the distribution of elemental abundance. At last, we compared our analytic result with that of Apollo and Lunar Prospector and found some consistencies and differences.

Mode Technique

Q‐mode factor analysis, K‐means clustering, and G‐mode clustering were used on digitized gamma‐ray spectrometer data from an aerial survey of the Crixas‐Itapaci area, Goias, Brazil. The data points including seven variables—eU, eTh, K, total count, U/Th, U/K, and Th/K—were digitized for a 2 km square grid. For the northwest corner of the area the data were gridded at 1 km. The Q‐mode classification method supplied results that do not show a good correspondence with the known geology. The K‐means clustering procedure barely identified the main lithologic features of the area. The G‐mode technique produced results that correlate well with the known geology and identified the greenstone belts present in the area by discriminating their ultramafic and mafic components from adjacent felsic rocks. Statistical analysis of aerial gamma‐ray spectrometer data can be very helpful in mapping geologic units in poorly known areas. It can also be used for mineral exploration purposes if mineralization is known to be associated with lithologies that can be identified by the techniques used in this study.
