Soil quality indices in a conservation agriculture based rice-mustard cropping system in North-western Indo-Gangetic Plains (2021, positive): “After statistical analysis, the parameters, which were found significant were subjected to principal component analysis (PCA) to convert it into an MDS through multivariate statistical technique (Andrews et al., 2002).”
Comparison of two soil quality indexes to evaluate cropping systems in northern Colorado (2008, methodology): “The SMAF has been tested in a wide variety of locations including Georgia, Iowa, California, and the Pacific Northwest (Andrews et al. 2002; Andrews et al. 2004), Iowa and Wisconsin (Karlen et al.”
Soil Quality Assessment Strategies for Evaluating Soil Degradation in Northern Ethiopia (2014, methodology): “Previous studies reported that different methods of minimum dataset selection (MDS), scoring, and SQ indexing have been applied but SQI results varied even for the same conditions [11, 13, 16].”
The Soil Management Assessment Framework (2004, positive): “This result using the SMAF is comparable with that of Andrews et al. (2002a), where scoring curves uses.”
Data-driven analysis of soil quality indicators using limited data (2014, methodology): “Andrews et al. (2004) mentioned that the expected range for each indicator will vary according to site-specific controlling factors, such as climate or inherent soil properties.”
Past, present and future of soil quality indices : A biological perspective (2008, methodology): “(2006b) used a different approach based on Andrews et al. (2002a) to establish aMicrobiological Degradation Index for natural soils in a semiarid climate (Murcia, southeastern Spain) (Fig.”
