[Prediction of Cadmium Content in the Leaves of Navel Orange in Heavy Metal Contaminated Soil Using VIS-NIR Reflectance Spectroscopy].

Visual and Near-infrared (VIS-NIR) reflectance spectroscopy had been used widely in monitoring agricultural pollution in recent years, however, it was rarely applied in monitoring the contamination of heavy metal in orchards. In the present paper, Newhall navel orange (Citrus sinensis [L.] Osbeck cv.

[Predicting soil salinity based on spectral symmetry under wet soil condition].

There has been a growing interest in using spectral reflectance as a rapid and inexpensive tool for soil salinity monitoring in recent years. However, since soil moisture often exerts a tremendous influence on soil reflectance, the monitoring accuracy under various moisture conditions cannot fully satisfy the requirements of agricultural practice. In the present paper, a linear model was built to relate the spectral symmetry in the band of 1 370 - 1 610 nm with the salt content and moisture content of the saline soil based on regularly measured data of reflectance, soil moisture and salt content of the surface of 5 soil columns during the simulated evaporation process in laboratory.
