Soil environmental quality in Nanling commodity grain base based on equal intercept transformation radar chart

Abstract This paper introduces for the first time the equal intercept transformation radar chart—an improved form—to the assessment of soil environmental quality of Nanling commodity grain base. The equal intercept transformation radar chart, a visual graphical data analysis method, translates data...
