Carbon stocks in the Brandenburg soil

This map is based on the legend units of the soil overview map with corresponding assignment of parameterized surface soil shapes. These represent a soil-forming society per unit of legend. Parameters were applied to the individual (area) soil forms, including the corresponding corg levels, which were determined by field and laboratory tests. The same horizon-substrate combinations were combined and the corresponding parameters (such as corg contents) were statistically derived (usually the median value). The sequence of horizon-substrate combinations of the surface soil forms with their corg contents formed the basis for the quantity calculation in t/ha. These were classified in steps of 30 t/ha each.
