Total Ecosystem Organic Carbon (gC/sq.m)

Total Ecosystem Organic Carbon (TEOC) is the total sum of Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) and Total Biomass Organic Carbon (of natural and transformed areas – crops and plantations) which includes Above Ground Woody Biomass (AGBwoody), Below Ground Woody Biomass (BGBwoody), Above Ground Herbaceous Biomass (AGBherb), Below Ground Herbaceous Biomass (BGBherb), and Aboveground litter (AGL). Carbon stocks were calculated to represent the long-term mean conditions. Units: average gC/m2within 1km x 1km pixel
