Computed Tomography to Estimate the Representative Elementary Area for Soil Porosity Measurements

<table>Normalized frequency of the porosity by image (%) from the 5th selected area in the sample 01 (S 01). A 05, A 06, …,  and A 15 correspond to the sequence of quadrangular areas selected in the image and free area (FA).
