Negative Correlation between Soil Salinity and Soil Organic Carbon Variability

Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) is vital for terrestrial ecosystems, affecting biogeochemical processes, and soil health. It is known that soil salinity impacts SOC content, yet the specific direction and magnitude of SOC variability of in relation to soil salinity remain poorly understood. Analyzing 43,459 mineral soil samples (SOC The data provided in this dataset forms the foundation for the aforementioned results and helps in replicating the output.
