Soil salinization and sodification are common processes that particularly characterize
drylands. These processes can be attributed either to natural conditions or anthropogenic …

Soil provides ecosystem services, supports human health and habitation, stores carbon and
regulates emissions of greenhouse gases. Unprecedented pressures on soil from …

This review addresses the applicability of visible (Vis), near-infrared (NIR), and mid-infrared
(MIR) reflectance spectroscopy for the prediction of soil properties. We address (1) the …

The successful determination of soil properties by visible and near-infrared (Vis–NIR)
reflectance spectroscopy (350–2500 nm) depends on the selection of an appropriate …

Soil quality (SQ) assessment has long been a challenging issue, since soils present high
variability in properties and functions. This paper aims to increase the understanding of SQ …

This paper is an extensive review of the research that has been undertaken on near-infrared
(NIR) and mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy applied to soil particularly for determining carbon …

The selection of calibration method is one of the main factors influencing the measurement
accuracy with visible (vis) and near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. This paper compared the …

This literature review explores the assessment of biochar quality and its impact on soil
properties using diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. Biochar, a product of biomass pyrolysis, is …

Since both the spatial and vertical heterogeneities in soil properties have an impact on crop
growth and yield, accurate characterization of soil properties at high sampling resolution is a …

A successful determination of spectrally active soil components with visible and near
infrared reflectance spectroscopy (VIS-NIRS, 400–2500nm) depends on the selection of an …
