Journal of Near Infrared Spectroscopy is a bimonthly, peer review journal dedicated to all aspects of NIR spectroscopy and technology with the publication of original research papers, short communications, review articles and letters.
NIR news is the official newsletter of the International Council for Near Infrared Spectroscopy. It informs, educates and keeps you up-to-date with developments and conferences throughout the world. NIR news is published eight times a year. A team of Regional Editors in Australia, Europe, Japan and North America helps to ensure that NIR news has an international outlook, which is supplemented with news of NIR groups in different countries.
Also see the Journal of Spectral Imaging, which publishes papers on NIR spectroscopy imaging.
Our books on NIR spectroscopy include the highly regarded introduction to the field of chemometrics and calibration, A User-Friendly Guide to Multivariate Calibration and Classification, the definitive work on diffuse relectance, Interpreting Diffuse Reflectance and Transmittance, the series of proceedings from the ICNIRS series of conferences, as well as books on NIR spectroscopy and chemometrics from other international publishers.
