The present paper provides the results from a series of laboratory experiments which were conducted to investigate the variable spectral behavior of diagnostic Fe(++) crystal field absorptions in common rock-forming minerals as a function of temperature. The general goal of the study is to refine existing techniques of mineralogic and chemical characterization, based on specific optical behavior which has been measured and correlated in a systematic way. It is pointed out that the presented work, taken together with a number of recent studies, provides new information on the manner in which specific features of mafic minerals combine in rocks and soil spectra, taking into account also variations of identification and subsequent interpretation as a function of planetary surface temperature. The obtained results are directly applicable to interpretation of remotely sensed data for many solar system objects, particularly Mars, asteroids, the moon, earth, and Mercury.
