The data set shows the modelled change of soil organic carbon under different managements in agriculture for different climate scenarios globally. Dataset includes the change to a business as usual scenario for different soil managements for each decade from 2030 to 2100.

Provenance & quality

The global data was modelled with the model ECOSSE (Estimating Carbon in Organic Soils – Sequestration and Emissions) with the use of global data sets for soil (harmonised world soil database) and climate (CRU dataset). The business as usual (BAU) scenario was modelled for the crop wheat and conventional tillage practice. The produced data set presents the difference to the BAU scenario by simulating different managements (reduced till, no till, residue incorporation, cover cropping, and manure) and climate scenarios based on the data sets of the Climate Research Unite of University of East Anglia (A1B – a moderate climate change scenario under rapid economic growth but balanced over all sectors, A2 – a worst case climate scenario with regional heterogeneous economic growth) in the years 2050 and 2100.
