Insight into origins of the NIR spectrum available from quantum chemical calculation on the example of a short chain fatty acid (vinyl acetic acid). Note, all bands are presented in common intensity scale (two inside panels present scaled-up intensity). This demonstrates well the convoluted nature of NIR spectra, which results from strongly overlapping numerous weak bands. Reproduced with permission from Ref. [91].
