Abstract:
The detection of residual pesticide levels in air and soils by remotely sensing their Raman Spectra is the objective of a recently initiated research program in the department. A necessary preliminary step in the endeavor has been to obtain data on the spectral distribution of scattered laser light from pure samples, under laboratory conditions.
