Quantitative Infrared Spectroscopy in Challenging Environments: Applications to Passive Remote Sensing and Process Monitoring.

摘要

Chemometrics is a discipline of chemistry which uses mathematical and statistical tools to help in the extraction of chemical information from measured data. With the assistance of chemometric methods, infrared (IR) spectroscopy has become a widely applied quantitative analysis tool. This dissertation explores two challenging applications of IR spectroscopy facilitated by chemometric methods: (1) passive Fourier transform (FT) remote sensing and (2) process monitoring by near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy.
