Calculation for soil organic carbon
Using a measure of bulk density the amount of carbon per hectare in a given depth of soil can be calculated as shown.
The amount of organic carbon to 10cm depth in soil with a carbon value of 1.5% and bulk density of 1.3g/cm 3 is: 15 (g C/kg soil) x 1 300 000 (kg soil/ha) = 19.5t C/ha or 1.5 x 1.3 x 10 = 19.5t C/ha
Soil Carbon Project activities and eligibility requirements - Projects must introduce one or more of the following activities:
ERF - Emissions Reductions Fund
Soil Carbon Projects Factsheet
Estimating soil organic carbon sequestration using measurement and models method
Understanding your Soil Carbon Project
