Abstract

In this study, a systematic review and meta-analysis of scientific researches devoted to the assessment of the soil organic carbon content using Vis-NIR spectroscopy approaches was carried out. The meta-analysis included 134 studies published between 1986 and 2022 with a total sample of 709 values of quantitative metrics. The articles were searched in databases of scientific periodicals: RSCI, Science Direct, Scopus, Google Scholar by the key words: “Vis-NIR spectroscopy AND soil organic carbon”. In the process of meta-analysis, using the nonparametric one-sided Kraskel-Wallis variance analysis in conjunction with the nonparametric pairwise method, the presence of a statistically significant difference between the median values of the accepted quantitative metrics of the predictive power of the models (coefficient of determination (R2cv/val), root mean square error (RMSE) and the ratio of performance to deviation (RPD) comparisons. As a result, the best efficiency (from the point of view of comparing these metrics) was revealed for the method of preprocessing spectral curves, for various multidimensional data analysis approaches used, and the results of assessing the organic carbon content of soils were compared between spectroscopy in the laboratory and directly in the field.
