The relation between albedo and water potential was determined for three soils and compared to the corresponding relation between albedo and water content. Homogeneous disks of soil were equilibrated at different water potentials, and their albedo measured outdoors, using a pyranometer with a 28 ยฐ v

The near-IR spectral properties of minerals, meteorites, and lunar soil vary with temperature. The manner in which these materials vary is diagnostic of aspects of their composition. We quantify the spectral dependence on temperature by reporting the change in relative reflectance with temperature a
