An elemental exploration of the metal contents of an early 13th­-century craft box from Lõhavere, using pXRF [PDF]

open access: yesEesti Arheoloogiaajakiri
The craft box recovered from a 13th­century hillfort at Lõhavere, Estonia, contained a well-preserved selection of copper­alloy objects. The limited corrosion on these objects allowed a more accurate estimation of their compositions through non ...

Correcting correlation quality of portable X-ray fluorescence to better map heavy metal contamination by spatial co-kriging interpolation

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
High-precision mapping based on portable X-ray fluorescence (PXRF) data is currently being studied extensively; however, owing to poor correlation with soil metal concentration, the original PXRF data directly used for co-kriging interpolation (CKI ...
