1. Potential of Visible and Near Infrared Spectroscopy for Prediction of Paddy Soil Physical PropertiesA fast and convenient soil analytical technique is needed for soil quality assessment and precision soil management. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of Visible (Vis) and Near-infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy (NIRS) to predict paddy soil physical properties in a typical Malaysian paddy field. To assess the utility of spectroscopy for soil physical characteristics prediction, we used 118 soil samples for laboratory analysis and optical measurement in the Vis-NIR region... A. Gholizadeh, M.

2. Compensating for Soil Moisture Effects in Estimation of Soil Properties by Electrical Conductivity SensingBulk apparent soil electrical conductivity (ECa) is the most widely used soil sensing modality in precision agriculture. Soil ECa relates to multiple soil properties, including clay content (i.e., texture) and salt content (i.e., salinity). However, calibrations of ECa to soil properties are not temporally stable, due in large part to soil moisture differences between measurement dates. Therefore, the objective of this research was to investigate the effects of temporal soil moisture variations... K.A. Sudduth, N.R. Kitchen, E.D. Vories, S.T. Drummond |
