Separate correction dewatering machine for the spectroscopic determination of organic carbon in wet soil
摘要
Soil spectroscopic technology has proven to be a real-time alternative for estimating soil organic carbon (SOC); however, soil water often affects spectra and limits the accuracy of SOC estimation. This study aimed to decrease the effect of soil water on SOC spectroscopic modeling.
Materials and methodsA separate correction dewatering machine (SCDM) method was used to estimate SOC. This method can effectively mitigate the effect of soil water by performing correction processes for each spectral band individually. The soil spectra and soil water contents used for conducting this study were obtained using an ASD FieldSpec 3 spectroradiometer.
Results and discussionAfter a series of correction processes, the optimal SCDM model (root mean square error (RMSE), 2.26 g/kg; ratio of performance to deviation (RPD), 2.51; ratio of performance to interquartile range (RPIQ), 3.90) was acquired to determine the optimal model, which provided better modeling performance than a multiple linear regression (MLR) model.
ConclusionsThe SCDM method is a valuable reference for dewatering and represents a currently available methodology for estimating soil properties spectroscopically.
