Fig. 6 The result of Post_Result2. (This image was obtained by first classifying the bare surface image into 20 classes, examining the organic-C concentrations with the average, upper-bound, and lower-bound values for each class, and then grouping these 20 classes into 8 classes. The clip and majority were applied before final display.)
