Gamaespectrometria aplicada em solo agrícola no noroeste do Estado do Rio de Janeiro

Abstract: ABSTRACT. The present work presents the use of gamma-ray spectrometry applied to precision agriculture in a sub-tropical area. Our dataset comprises measurements both in rock and residual soil. The soil dataset shows a reduction of 20% on U and Th and 10% on K, when compared to rock samples. This difference could be related to K supplementation associated to chemical fertilization.Keywords: gamma-ray spectrometry, agriculture, soils, fertilizers.RESUMO. O escopo deste trabalho consistiu no levantamento, proces… Show more

“…The defi nition of areas with greater uncertainties, defi ned as potentially ferruginous substrates, reinforces the diffi culty of mapping these vegetation typologies using spectral data, particularly when associated with specifi c substrates, as in the IQ region where there are great variations in geological units with diff erent degrees of metamorphism (Lobato et al, 2005). Thus, Gamma data, in addition to assisting geological and pedological surveys (Vasconcellos et al, 1994;Wilford et al, 1997;McBratney et al, 2003;Santos et al, 2008), can be extremely important for mapping phytophysiognomies associated with diff erent substrates.…”

“…Also, Gamma spectrometry responds to concentrations of potassium (K) radioisotopes, uranium (U) and thorium (Th) series radioisotopes. In rocks and soils; these concentrations are directly proportional to the intensity of the gamma radiation emitted by their radioactive decay (Wilford et al, 1997;Santos et al, 2008), and are frequently associated with the geochemical signature of substrates. This allows, for example, the separation of ferruginous and nonferruginous substrates, with diff erent geochemical compositions.…”

“…No Brasil, a integração de dados multifonte tem sido cada vez mais aplicada contribuindo para estudos de diversas áreas, tais como geologia, geomorfologia, engenharia agrícola, entre outros (SOUZA, 1998;RUY et al, 2006;DOS SANTOS et al, 2008;CARRINO et al, 2011;IZA et al, 2016). Souza (1998) utilizou dados gamaespectromé-tricos em uma área agricultável para correlacionar anomalias radiométricas com processos pedogenéticos e de fertilização fosfatada.…”

“…Por sua vez, Dos Santos et al (2008) usaram dados gamaespectrométricos para a caracterização da fertilização de solos em uma região no noroeste do Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Os resultados obtidos indicaram uma perda dos radioelementos em relação às rochas fonte, e alegaram que a menor perda de potássio em relação aos outros elementos é associada ao suprimento deste elemento durante o processo de fertilização.…”
