The analysis and interpretation of remote sensing data facilitates investigation of land surface complexity on large spatial scales. We introduce here a geometrically high-resolution data set provided by the airborne High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC-A). The sensor records digital multispectral and panchromatic stereo bands from which a very high-resolution ground elevation model can be produced. After introducing the basic principles of the HRSC technique and data, applications of HRSC data within the multidisciplinary Research Training Group 437 are presented. Applications include geomorphologic mapping, geomorphometric analysis, mapping of surficial grain-size distribution, rock glacier kinematic analysis, vegetation monitoring and three-dimensional landform visualization. A final evaluation of the HRSC data based on three years of multipurpose usage concludes this presentation. A combination of image and elevation data opens up various possibilities for visualization and three-dimensional analysis of the land surface, especially in geomorphology. Additionally, the multispectral imagery of the HRSC data has potential for land cover mapping and vegetation monitoring. We consider HRSC data a valuable source of high-resolution terrain information with high applicability in physical geography and earth system science.

It is a common practice to analyze fracture spacing data collected from scanlines and wells at various resolutions for the purposes of aquifer and reservoir characterization. However, the influence of resolution on such analyses is not well-studied. Lacunarity is a parameter that is used for multiscale analysis of spatial data. In quantitative terms, at any given scale, it is a function of the mean and variance of the distribution of masses captured by a gliding a window of that scale (size) across any pattern of interest. We have described the application of lacunarity for delineating differences between scale-dependent clustering attributes of data collected at different resolutions along a scanline. Specifically, we considered data collected at different resolutions from two outcrop exposures, a pavement and a cliff section, of the Cretaceous turbititic sandstones of the Chatsworth Formation widely exposed in southern California. For each scanline, we analyzed data from low-resolution aerial or ground photographs and high-resolution ground measurements for scale-dependent clustering attributes. High-resolution data show larger values of scale-dependent lacunarity than their respective low-resolution counterparts. We further performed a bootstrap analysis for each data set to test for the significance of such clustering differences. We started with generating 300 realizations for each data set and then ran lacunarity analysis on them. It was seen that lacunarity for higher resolution data set lay significantly outside the upper 90th percentile values, thus proving that higher resolution data are distinctly different from random and fractures are clustered. We have therefore postulated that lower resolution data capture fracture zones that had relatively uniform spacing, whereas higher resolution data capture thin and short splay joints and sheared joints that contribute to fracture clustering. Such findings have important implications in terms of understanding organization of fractures in fracture corridors, which in turn is critical for modeling and upscaling exercises.

A couple of years ago a study was presented that set the record for the highest X-ray crystallographic resolution for a biological macromolecule [1]. The structure of the small protein crambin was determined to 0.48 Å resolution - this almost doubled the amount of available experimental data. Crambin is a small protein consisting of 46 amino acids belonging to the thionin family. Although the protein and its structure has long been known, it lacks any obvious enzymatic activity and has a hard-to-guess biological function. The protein crystallizes readily and serves as an excellent specimen for exploring the limits of resolution of the diffraction. The results demonstrated the possibilities that can be offered by a high-energy synchrotron source. The structure refined with Refmac, Shelxl and Mopro revealed a wealth of details. Bonding electron density became visible along the main chain. However, no fundamental additional structural features could be detected in comparison to the previously collected data set to 0.54 Å resolution. The availability of extremely high-resolution data is certainly of great help to drive further software development and methods for data interpretation. The question will always remain as to what the true limits are in terms of what can be seen in a biological macromolecule. Here we will present the results of our recent efforts in interpretation of such ultra-high resolution data.

Collection of a three-dimensional data set from anthracene illustrates some of the difficulties which can be encountered. Since the crystals are grown from solution their orientation is not certain, and the crystals are very bendy, so a range of orientations is encountered at a given tilt setting. Anthracene is moderately labile to irradiation, so care must be taken to avoid radiation damage during data collection. Anthracene will sublime at room temperature under vacuum, so the data must be collected at reduced temperature. Flat, well-ordered areas of the crystals are rare, so collection of high-resolution data is time-consuming. The thickness of the crystals is difficult to control, so finding areas which have minimal multiple scattering is also formidable.The structure of anthracene is already known, so simulations of the diffraction patterns along various zone axes can be made. Cerius 2.0® was used to produce simulated zone axis patterns for all combinations of indices whose absolute values were 3 or less. The preferred orientation for the untilted grid is [102]. Scans of several preparations resulted in patterns which matched the simulation for [102]. The angles for each of the Miller planes with respect to [102] were calculated from the formula given by Dorset.
