Analysis of the Topographic Roughness of the Moon Using the Wavelet Leaders Method and the Lunar Digital Elevation Model From the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter and SELENE Terrain Camera
[en] The Wavelet Leaders Method (WLM) is a wavelet‐based multifractal formalism that allows the
identification of scale breaks (thus scaling regimes), the definition of scaling properties (mono versus
multi fractality of the surface), and the calculation of the Hölder exponent that characterizes each pixel,
based on the comparison between a theoretical wavelet and topographic values. Here we use the WLM and
the SLDEM2015 digital elevation model to provide a near‐global and a local isotropic characterization
of the lunar roughness. The near‐global study of baselines between 330 m and 1,350 km reveals scale breaks
at ~1.3, 42.2, and 337.6 km. Scaling properties and Hölder exponent values were calculated for the three
corresponding scaling regimes: 330–659 m, 1.3–21.1 km, and 42.2–168.8 km. We find that the dichotomy
between the highlands and the maria is present at all scales. Between 330 and 659 m, the Hölder
exponent map shows the unique signature of Orientale basin, rilles, and a correlation with the age of
mare units. Between 1.3 and 21.1 km, it shows the unique signature of the Orientale basin and a
relationship with the density of 5‐ to 20‐km‐diameter craters. Scaling properties and Hölder exponent
values were also calculated locally for complex craters, basins, rilles and light plains, for two scaling
regimes: 165–659 m and 1.3–21.1 km. Relationships between the Hölder exponent values at 165–659 m,
the density of <500‐m‐diameter craters and different geologic units were found and a potential scale
break near 165 m was identified.
