We have developed a lexicon to consistently and objectively describe morphological features observed in scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images. Here we provide the lexicon flowsheet, define the terminology, and detail step-by-step characterization of SEM images collected from a set of actinide oxides. We conclude that this lexicon can be used to characterize texture and surface features, particle structure and size, and grain boundaries in an image of a material. The lexicon should be applicable to characterization of images collected from other techniques for measuring morphology, as well. LA-UR-15-26746
