Instrument Reports

Access instrument reports from NASA's Field Support Group.

These protocols are preliminary, representing our current methodologies based on the NASA protocol series (NASA/TM - 2003-211621/Rev4-Vol.IV) and new methods (Rottgers and Gehnke, 2012 ; Roesler, 1998). Cross-validation of results from these methods and other measurement approaches is in progress.
