Hyperspectral Technique: An Opportunity in Ecology

The hyperspectral technique is a robust method that can accurately identify surface features via the high resolution detection of spectral features. It has wide application prospects in the study of ecological processes and properties. Here, we systemically reviewed the implication of the hyperspectral technique in soil, plant physiology, quality detection of agricultural products and litter decomposition based on its principles, characteristics, advantages and analysis processes. Its disadvantages and drawbacks were also discussed to allow for better application in ecology.
