Dear colleagues,

We would like to draw your attention to a session focused on field and laboratory studies that we are convening at the 2018 AOGS meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii, June 3-8, 2018. Our intention is to bring together researchers from all over Asia as well as the Americas and Europe to present the latest field and laboratory studies in support of remote infrared studies of planetary bodies.

Abstract deadline: January 19

Look forward to seeing you in Honolulu!

PS22: Field and Laboratory Studies in Support of Planetary Infrared Remote Sensing This session will highlight the importance of comprehensive analog studies towards understanding planetary remote sensing datasets, with a focus on the near infrared and thermal infrared. Contributions that probe the links between the small-scale of laboratory (microns-mm) and ground/airborne field (cm-m) measurement to the large-scale (10s meters-km) in remote sensing observations to better interpret the properties of surfaces and atmospheres are encouraged. This session is open to a diverse range of planetary bodies. New developments of instrumentation and techniques used in field and laboratory studies are also welcome.
