Remote sensing uses reflected radiation and therefore can directly sense differences in organic matter content of bare surface soils,but not differences in properties such as water content or iron oxide content.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Remote sensing can detect differences in various soil properties including water content and iron oxide content, as these properties affect the reflectance and absorption characteristics of the soil, which can be measured by remote sensing technologies.
