“…Samples were collected according to widely accepted procedures (Boudreault et al 2012;Theocharopoulos et al 2001). As a trade-off between economic constraints and the need for a detailed and adequate characterization of soil properties, a reasoned sampling criterion was defined, based on a two-level grid resolution.…”

“…Only later were QA/QC schemes adopted for environmental purposes, but they are still largely inadequate, because they usually cover only the measurements in the laboratory as a routine procedure and exclude the primary soil sampling in the environment, which is an essential part of the whole measurement chain. An exception are the studies performed by Gustavsson et al (2006) and Boudreault et al (2012). It is a serious problem for QA/QC that, in contrast to industrial production, the natural environment cannot be standardized.…”

“…1;2016 Due to missing reference values to determine the sampling bias, in practice the primary sampling bias is usually not taken into account. As a result the overall measurement uncertainty is expressed one to two orders of magnitude smaller than it really is, because by far the biggest measurement errors stem from non representative primary soil sampling (Gy, 2004;Gustavsson et al, 2006;Boudreault et al, 2012). It is a serious shortcoming that in the QA/QC handbook of "Measurement uncertainty arising from sampling" (Ramsey & Ellis, 2007) not one example considers the primary soil sampling bias.…”

“…Measurement uncertainty arises from a number of different sources, and potentially at any stage from sample collection to the final reporting of measurement results. Much effort has been put into the reduction and evaluation of analytical uncertainty in laboratory measurements, but there is increasing awareness that sampling uncertainty is often the largest component of the overall uncertainty (Boudreault et al, 2012;IAEA, 2004;Ramsey and Argyraki, 1997;Ramsey and Ellison, 2007;Taylor et al, 2004). Sampling uncertainty can be considered to represent the uncertainty in measurements that arises when a primary sampling process (using the same nominal protocol) is repeated.…”
