Performance of Field-Scale Lab vs in Situ Visible/near- and Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy for Estimation of Soil Properties

Abstract Comparison of laboratory versus in situ visible/near- (visNIR) and mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy for prediction of various soil properties is required to demonstrate trade-offs between accuracy and efficiency. Field measurements were made …

VNIR and MIR Spectroscopy of PLFA-derived Soil Microbial Properties and Associated Soil Physicochemical Characteristics in an Experimental Plant Diversity Gradient

Improving our understanding of the functions and processes of soil microbial communities and their interactions with the physicochemical soil environment requires large amounts of timely and cost-efficient soil data, which is difficult to obtain with …
