Fourier-transform Raman spectroscopic study of surface of Norway spruce needles

The potential of Raman spectroscopy and chemometrics for environmental monitoring was investigated. Needles of Norway spruce [ Picea abies (L.) Karst.] were studied without any chemical treatment by Fourier-transform Raman spectroscopy. Two different forest areas of Czech Republic were chosen. Sampl...

Description
Summary:The potential of Raman spectroscopy and chemometrics for environmental monitoring was investigated. Needles of Norway spruce [ Picea abies (L.) Karst.] were studied without any chemical treatment by Fourier-transform Raman spectroscopy. Two different forest areas of Czech Republic were chosen. Samples of twigs were taken in June (1997) and in September (1997). FT-Raman spectra obtained were analysed by cluster analysis and further chemometric evaluation was performed. The influences of two factors (“sample area”, “needle age”) were primarily described.
