abstract = {Soil structural changes (layering and texture) influence
above surface processes such as plant performance and
growth, which is visible in airborne hyperspectral
measurements. However, the soil structural changes below the
ploughing layer are often ignored when studying spatial
plant patterns. Here, we investigate the origin of these
patterns due to soil structural changes by analyzing
airborne hyperspectral data in combination with non-invasive
geophysical fixed-boom multi-coil electromagnetic induction
(EMI) data. The HyPlant dual channel airborne imaging
spectrometer obtains sun-induced red- and far-red
fluorescence data as well as derived vegetation indices,
which indicate plant performance and growth. The EMI
instruments measure the soil apparent electrical
conductivity (ECa) that is a weighted average value over a
specific depth range depending on the transmitter-receiver
coil configuration i.e. coil separation and orientation.
After ECa calibration and quantitative EMI data inversion, a
layeredsubsurface electrical conductivity () model
reflecting soil structural changes is obtained. At our test
site, thefixed-boom multi-coil ECa maps of nine EMI coil
configurations spatially indicated soil patterns due to
buriedpaleo-river channels that interact with the plants as
observed in the airborne hyperspectral data. After EMI
datainversions, the layered quasi-3D model showed a
relatively homogeneous ploughing layer in the upper 30 cmand
the paleo-river channels appeared in the subsoil below
approximately 0.85 m depth. The correlation coefficient(r)
between the layer and hyperspectral data confirmed that not
the ploughing layer (r 0.35) but the subsoil(r 0.65) was
responsible for plant performance and growth due to
differences in soil structure and thus waterholding capacity
especially during dry periods. For the first time, we
combined depth specific 3D soil structuralinformation
obtained by quantitative fixed-boom multi-coil EMI data
inversions and airborne hyperspectral data toshow that the
above surface plant performance is strongly influenced by
the subsoil at the investigated site.
Conclusively,quantitative multi-coil EMI measurements and
inversions can deliver valuable information about the topand
subsoil structural organization that needs to be included in
plant modeling tools for an improved descriptionof above and
below surface processes.},
