Absorption and Scattering Coefficients: A Biophysical-Chemistry Experiment Using Reflectance Spectroscopy
Cordon, Gabriela B.; Lagorio, M. Gabriela
Journal of Chemical Education, v84 n7 p1167-1170 Jul 2007
A biophysical-chemistry experiment, based on the reflectance spectroscopy for calculating the absorption and scattering coefficients of leaves is described. The results show that different plants species exhibit different values for both the coefficients because of their different pigment composition.
