Near-Infrared Spectroscopy for Determination of Soil Organic C, Microbial Biomass C and C and N Fractions in a Heterogeneous Sample of German Arable Surface Soils

Visual and near-infrared spectroscopy (vis-NIRS) is an established method to estimate soil properties. However, only limited information is available to estimate C and N fractions in a heterogeneous sample. The objectives of our study were to …
