Spatial Thermal Radiometry Contribution to the Massif Armoricain and the Massif Central France Litho-Structural Study

摘要

Thermal zones delimited on HCMM images, by visual interpretation only, were correlated with geological units and carbonated rocks, granitic, and volcanic rocks were individualized rock signature is evolutive parameter and some distinctions were made by addition of day, night and seasonal thermal image interpretation. This analysis also demonstrated that forest cover does not mask the underlying rocks thermal signature. Thermal linears are associated with known tectonics but the observed thermal variations from day to night and from one to another represent a promising concept to be studied in function of neotectonics and hydrogeology. The thermal anomalies discovered represent a potential interest which is to be evaluated. Significant results were obtained in the Mont Dore area and additional geological targets were defined in the Paris Basin and the Montmarault granite.
