Resumo

The correct choice of the calibration strategy method is a step that can ensure the accuracy of carbon determination in soils by laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. In this paper, we evaluate and discuss the intrinsic character-istics of univariate and multivariate calibration strategies in overcoming soil matrix effects and their influence on the magnitude of calibration and prediction error values. The matrix-matching calibration with previous cor-rection of Al spectral interference in the C I line at 193.03 nm was the best strategy of the 13 univariate models evaluated [root-mean-square error of calibration-(RMSEP) = 0.2 wt.% C]. In the multivariate evaluation of the 22 models obtained, the artificial neural network allowed obtaining a lower value of prediction error for C (RMSEP = 0.1 wt.% C) with very good accuracy (98%) for the set samples of validation. The observation of these results was justified considering the advantages and limitations of each calibration strategy explored.(c) 2023 Optica Publishing Group (AU)
