Comparing Different Multivariate Calibration Methods for the Determination of Soil Organic Carbon Pools with Visible to near Infrared Spectroscopy

A successful determination of spectrally active soil components with visible and near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (VIS-NIRS, 400-2500 nm) depends on the selection of an adequate multivariate calibration technique. In this study, the contents of …
