Soil Spectral Analysis

2021 13th International Conference on Electronics, Computers and Artificial Intelligence (ECAI), 2021
The properties, transformation processes and functions of the soil can vary in time and space and therefore requires the development of new methods for measuring and monitoring it. The conventional laboratory methods used to analyse the properties of the soil have a number of shortcomings, which often make them inapplicable for monitoring the ...

Soil radiocarbon analysis and soil dating

Geophysical Surveys, 1977
Based on14C dating principles, techniques of measuring14C concentrations in pedogenic organic materials have been well established. Basic lines of soil sample pretreatment for radiocarbon analysis by liquid scintillation are shown. Possible influences of lithogenic carbon on the results obtained are discussed.

Physicochemical Analysis of Neotropical Soils

2020
In archaeological contexts, physicochemical soil analyses are essential to distinguish between the anthropogenic characteristics of the soil and those resulting from soil formation processes. This involves several physicochemical characterisations of samples, which have been used since the first half of the last century in various regions of the world,

Development of a System for Soil Microclimatic Analysis

2007 IEEE Symposium on Virtual Environments, Human-Computer Interfaces and Measurement Systems, 2007
In this paper the design and the development of a moisture sensor for granular and porous mediums are presented. In the proposed method the moisture is measured by estimating the velocity of propagation of seismic waves (both compressional and shear ones) between a transmitter and a receiver separated by a known distance. The first experimental results

A Soil-Fluiddynamics Analysis of a Swelling-Shrinking Process in a Clayey Soil

Volume 2: Automotive Systems, Bioengineering and Biomedical Technology, Fluids Engineering, Maintenance Engineering and Non-Destructive Evaluation, and Nanotechnology, 2006
Most soils show a swelling behaviour depending on their water content: this property can strongly affect the effectiveness of agriculture. Because of the importance of the topic, this paper is aimed at investigating a given vertisol in terms of swelling and shrinkage with variations in its humidity. For this, a suitable experimental setup was realised,

SPECTROGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF PLANTS AND SOILS

Biological Reviews, 1947
SummarySpectrographic methods which are applicable to the analysis of plants and soils include those employing flame, arc and spark excitation. Some seventy elements can be determined spectrographically, the most important exceptions being gaseous and non‐metallic elements.The most widely used flame emission method is that devised by Lundegårdh, in ...
