Spatial variation and predictions of soil organic matter and total nitrogen based on VNIR reflectance in a basin of Chinese Loess Plateau

Abstract: Taiyuan basin in Chinese Loess Plateau was characterized as the variety of landform, land use fragmentation, low soil organic matter (SOM) and soil total nitrogen (STN) content; therefore, the predictions of soil nutrients in the area were rather difficult. In this study, three soil sampli...
