DOI: 10.1007/s11368-020-02668-2
Abstract: Traditional soil organic carbon density (SOCD) measurement is time-consuming and costly, from field sampling to laboratory analysis. However, visible to near-infrared reflectance (vis-NIR) spectroscopy can rapidly estimate SOCD and thereby permit rapid, inexpensive measurements that… read more here.
