The potential of near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy to analyse soil chemical and physical characteristics
Abstract
Near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) was used for the analysis of soil samples for silt, sand, clay, calcium (Ca), potassium (K), sodium (Na), magnesium (Mg), copper (Cu) and iron (Fe). A total of 332 samples of different soils from Uruguay (South America) were used. The samples were scanned in a NIRS 6500 (NIRSystems, Silver Spring, MD, USA) in reflectance. Cross validation was applied to avoid overfitting of the models. The coefficient of determination in calibration (R^2_{\rm cal}) and the standard errors in cross validation (SECV) were 0·80 (SECV: 6·8), 0·84 (SECV: 6·0), 0·90 (SECV: 3·6) in per cent for sand, silt and clay respectively. For both macro and microelements the R^2_{\rm cal} and SECV were 0·80 (SECV: 0·1), 0·95 (SECV: 2·9), 0·90 (SECV 0·8), for K, Ca, Mg in g/kg respectively, and 0·86 (SECV: 0·82) and 0·92 (SECV: 25·5) for Cu and Fe in mg/kg. It was concluded that NIRS has a great potential as an analytical method for soil routine analysis due to the speed and low cost of analysis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
