Research Project: Lunar Surface Thermal Remote Sensing and Its Representative Value

Project Code: FIRE-Astro-250501-LSTRS

Project Start-End Dates: 2025-05-02 to now

People: Y. Güray Hatipoğlu (Principal Investigator, FIRE)

This project aims to utilize available lunar surface data in thermal IR and micrometer wavelength range, as well as all other related concepts and models, and generates insights and relations regarding the lunar surface dynamics.

• better utilization of the thermal IR and micrometer wavelength data,
• constructing and validating empirical lunar surface temperature models, and
• generating surrogate thermal and microwave data to infer other lunar surface dynamics.

Research Project: Exposure Assessment of Micropollutants

Project Code: FIRE-ENV-240801-EXP

Project Start-End Dates: 2024-08-01 to 2025-02-08 (terminated)

People: Dr. Hale Demirtepe (Principal Investigator, IYTE), Burcu Yıldırım (IYTE), Y. Güray Hatipoğlu (FIRE-AE, asisting and providing training)

This project examined the available data on micropollutants in environment and biota and aimed to make an exposure assessment to fill the identified gaps in this subject.
