Background and aims Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) has provided a non-invasive means for field root investigation. However, the horizontal cross angle (x) of root orientation intersecting a survey line considerably impacts the amplitude area (A) reflected from a root and impairs the accuracy of GPR-based root quantification. Prediction of A(90°) (the value of A scanning at x = 90°) from multiple A...
Introduction In a recent paper, Tanikawa et al. Plant Soil 373:317–327, (2013) reported a considerable impact of root orientation on the accuracy of root detection and root diameter estimation by ground-penetrating radar (GPR). Methods In Tanikawa et al. Plant Soil 373:317–327, (2013), buried root samples in a sand box were scanned from multiple cross angles between root orientation and GPR transecting...
