Description

LEG-SOC94

302

Data of measured topsoil SOC collected in the 1994 in land use CORINE 2.1 also used in [56] after a normalization procedure for depth. See further for explanation of the normalization process

EST-SOC08

302

Data of estimated topsoil SOC in land use CORINE 2.1 extracted in the coinciding location of the LEG-SOC94 after the BRT modelling built with samples taken in 2008 and provided in [56]

SOC94

30

Random samples from the LEG-SOC94 in land use CORINE 2.1 after control for stability of land use until the 2017. See further for explanation of the strategy to establish the number of samples and location

SOC17

30

Samples taken in April 2017 in coinciding locations of the C94

EST-SOC08- LEG-SOC94

302

Differences between data estimated in 2008 in the same locations of data collected in 1994

SOC17- SOC94

30

Differences between data measured in 2017 in the same locations of data selected in 1994

  1. log10 of each of these databases were also computed
