An Opto-Electronic Sensor for Detecting Soil Microarthropods and Estimating Their Size in Field Conditions

An Opto-Electronic Sensor for Detecting Soil Microarthropods and Estimating Their Size in Field Conditions

Methods to estimate density of soil-dwelling arthropods efficiently, accurately and continuously are critical for investigating soil biological activity and evaluating soil management practices. Soil-dwelling arthropods are currently monitored manually. This method is invasive, and time- and labor-c...
