This investigation evaluates the capability of Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) satellite remote sensing imagery for mapping and discrimination of phyllosilicate mineral groups in the Antarctic environment of northern Victoria Land. The Mixture-Tuned Matched-Filtering (MTMF) and Constrained Energy Minimization (CEM) algorithms were used to detect the sub-pixel abundance of Al-rich, Fe3+-rich, Fe2+-rich and Mg-rich phyllosilicates using the visible and near-infrared (VNIR), short-wave infrared (SWIR) and thermal-infrared (TIR) bands of ASTER. Results indicate that Al-rich phyllosilicates are strongly detected in the exposed outcrops of the Granite Harbour granitoids, Wilson Metamorphic Complex and the Beacon Supergroup. The presence of the smectite mineral group derived from the Jurassic basaltic rocks (Ferrar Dolerite and Kirkpatrick Basalts) by weathering and decomposition processes implicates Fe3+-rich and Fe2+-rich phyllosilicates. Biotite (Fe2+-rich phyllosilicate) is detected associated with the Granite Harbour granitoids, Wilson Metamorphic Complex and Melbourne Volcanics. Mg-rich phyllosilicates are mostly mapped in the scree, glacial drift, moraine and crevasse fields derived from weathering and decomposition of the Kirkpatrick Basalt and Ferrar Dolerite. Chlorite (Mg-rich phyllosilicate) was generally mapped in the exposures of Granite Harbour granodiorite and granite and partially identified in the Ferrar Dolerite, the Kirkpatrick Basalt, the Priestley Formation and Priestley Schist and the scree, glacial drift and moraine. Statistical results indicate that Al-rich phyllosilicates class pixels are strongly discriminated, while the pixels attributed to Fe3+-rich class, Fe2+-rich and Mg-rich phyllosilicates classes contain some spectral mixing due to their subtle spectral differences in the VNIR+SWIR bands of ASTER. Results derived from TIR bands of ASTER show that a high level of confusion is associated with mafic phyllosilicates pixels (Fe3+-rich, Fe2+-rich and Mg-rich classes), whereas felsic phyllosilicates (Al-rich class) pixels are well mapped. Ground truth with detailed geological data, petrographic study and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis verified the remote sensing results. Consequently, ASTER image-map of phyllosilicate minerals is generated for the Mesa Range, Campbell and Priestley Glaciers, northern Victoria Land of Antarctica.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13010038","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,24]],"date-time":"2020-12-24T22:56:45Z","timestamp":1608850605000},"page":"38","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":36,"title":["Identification of Phyllosilicates in the Antarctic Environment Using ASTER Satellite Data: Case Study from the Mesa Range, Campbell and Priestley Glaciers, Northern Victoria Land"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8783-5120","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amin Beiranvand","family":"Pour","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Oceanography and Environment (INOS), Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT), Kuala Nerus 21030, Terengganu, Malaysia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2523-7242","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Milad","family":"Sekandari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mining Engineering, Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman, Kerman 7616913439, Iran"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3556-5760","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Omeid","family":"Rahmani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Natural Resources Engineering and Management, School of Science and Engineering, University of Kurdistan Hewl\u00ear (UKH), Erbil 44001, Kurdistan Region, Iraq"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5770-8569","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Laura","family":"Crispini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra dell\u2019Ambiente e della Vita (DISTAV), University of Genova, Corso Europa, 26, I-16132 Genova, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2219-0450","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andreas","family":"L\u00e4ufer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR), Stilleweg 2, 30655 Hannover, Germany"}]},{"given":"Yongcheol","family":"Park","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Korea Polar Research Institute (KOPRI), Songdomirae-ro, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon 21990, Korea"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6705-2310","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jong Kuk","family":"Hong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Korea Polar Research Institute (KOPRI), Songdomirae-ro, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon 21990, Korea"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9863-2054","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Biswajeet","family":"Pradhan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Advanced Modelling &amp; Geospatial Information Systems (CAMGIS), Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology, University of Technology Sydney, New South Wales 2007, Australia"},{"name":"Department of Energy and Mineral Resources Engineering, Sejong University, Choongmu-gwan, 209 Neungdong-ro Gwangjin-gu, Seoul 05006, Korea"},{"name":"Center of Excellence for Climate Change Research, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah 21589, Saudi Arabia"},{"name":"Earth Observation Center, Institute of Climate Change, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), Bangi 43600, Selangor, Malaysia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8284-3332","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mazlan","family":"Hashim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Geoscience and Digital Earth Centre (INSTeG), Research Institute for Sustainable Environment, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), Johor Bahru, Skudai 81310, Malaysia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1974-7169","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohammad Shawkat","family":"Hossain","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Oceanography and Environment (INOS), Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT), Kuala Nerus 21030, Terengganu, Malaysia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8421-5874","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aidy M","family":"Muslim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Oceanography and Environment (INOS), Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT), Kuala Nerus 21030, Terengganu, Malaysia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6808-201X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kamyar","family":"Mehranzamir","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Faculty of Science and Engineering, University of Nottingham Malaysia, Jalan Broga, Semenyih 43500, Selangor, Malaysia"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Farmer, V.C.
