Traceable calibration, performance metrics, and uncertainty estimates of minirhizotron digital imagery for fine-root measurements.

Even though fine-root turnover is a highly studied topic, it is often poorly understood as a result of uncertainties inherent in its sampling, e.g., quantifying spatial and temporal variability. While many methods exist to quantify fine-root turnover, use of minirhizotrons has increased over the las...
