A New Perspective on the Applicability of Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy for Determining the Hematite Content of Fe-Rich Soils in the Tropical Margins of China

Hematite and goethite are widely occurring chromogenic iron oxides in soils and sediments that are sensitive to climatic dry/wet shifts. However, only by accurately quantifying the content or ratio of hematite and goethite can they be applied reliably to palaeoclimate reconstruction. Compared to the...
