Changes in soil organic carbon at regional scales : strategies to cope with spatial variability
Human activities may have, through land use and management changes, an impact on the large amounts of carbon sequestered in soils. Increasingly, inventories of Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) stocks are requested at the regional/national level for countries involved in the Kyoto Protocol and as input in biogeochemical models. However, SOC is characterised by a high spatial variability and a slow temporal dynamic, which reduce our ability to detect and explain SOC stock changes. At the regional scale, local (e.g. land use, topography) and global (e.g. climate) driving factors interact in a complex wa... Mehr ...
