In the Chang\u2019e satellite\u2019s observation of the microwave radiation brightness temperature (TB) on the lunar surface, there are some \u201ccold spots\u201d of microwave thermal radiation at night containing the Jackson crater. In order to compare the diurnal radiation TB differences of \u201ccold spots\u201d on the lunar surface, two typical craters at similar latitudes on the northern hemisphere on the lunar farside were selected: Jackson, which represents the new craters with a large number of discrete rocks on their surfaces; and Morse, which no longer has a large number of rocks after long-term meteorite impact and lunar evolution. In this paper, the diurnal variation of CE-2 MRM data in the two craters is presented, and a comparative analysis is made with the (FeO + TiO2) abundance (FTA) obtained by Clementine UV-VIS data and the rock abundance (RA) data of LRO Diviner. We find that the variation of the \"cold spots\" of lunar surface thermal radiation is closely related to the RA distribution in the newly formed craters on the lunar surface, and also has a certain correlation with the FTA.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs15153857","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,3]],"date-time":"2023-08-03T11:13:06Z","timestamp":1691061186000},"page":"3857","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Comparative Analysis of Diurnal Thermal Radiation Variation among Lunar Craters of Different Ages Using CE-2 MRM Data"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1886-8417","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lianghai","family":"Wu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science and Engineering, Macau University of Science and Technology, Macau 999078, China"},{"name":"School of Computer Science, Guangdong University of Petrochemical Technology, Maoming 525000, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6954-7691","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zhanchuan","family":"Cai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science and Engineering, Macau University of Science and Technology, Macau 999078, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6763-2518","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xiu","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science and Engineering, Macau University of Science and Technology, Macau 999078, China"},{"name":"School of Information and Intelligent Engineering, Guangzhou Xinhua University, Guangzhou(Dongguan) 523133, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4507-2572","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yuyun","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science and Engineering, Macau University of Science and Technology, Macau 999078, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4598-087X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zhiguo","family":"Meng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Geoexploration Science and Technology, Jilin University, Changchun 130012, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Lunar and Planetary Sciences, Macau University of Science and Technology, Macau 999078, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"194","DOI":"10.1016\/j.icarus.2012.02.017","article-title":"First microwave map of the Moon with Chang\u2019E-1 data: The role of local time in global imaging","volume":"219","author":"Zheng","year":"2012","journal-title":"Icarus"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"7310","DOI":"10.1109\/TGRS.2018.2850034","article-title":"Lunar brightness temperature map and TB distribution model","volume":"56","author":"Lan","year":"2018","journal-title":"IEEE Trans.
