Advances in near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to assess soil health Alexander SmithDiffuse reflectance spectroscopy in the near infrared (NIR: 350 2500 nm) region offers a relatively rapid, non destructive, and high throughput alternative to wet chemistry measurements of soil health. Infrared absorbance frequencies of soil constituents such as organic matter and clay minerals form the basis for developing reliable calibrations for predicting soil health indicators (SHI). To demonstrate suggested practices, and potential challenges
