Infrared Spectroscopic Predictions of Soil Properties for Agricultural Monitoring: Statistical and Soil Spectroscopic Considerations

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Pseudo‐independent validation (PIV) using regional datasets is common in visible‐to‐near‐infrared (vis–NIR) and mid‐infrared (MIR) spectroscopy studies and produces accurate predictions but is relevant only to regional‐scale monitoring of known sites.

Asynchronous Response of Plant Productivity and Soil Aggregate Nutrients to Grazing Exclusion Duration in Alpine Steppe

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grazing exclusion is a critical restoration measure for degraded alpine steppe ecosystems. However, research remains limited on the key factors influencing soil aggregates that affect plant productivity and the mechanisms influencing nutrient distribution across aggregates of different size fractions during long‐term grazing exclusion.
