Soil organic carbon content in × 5 g / kg (to convert to % divide by 2) at 6 standard depths (0, 10, 30, 60, 100 and 200 cm) at 250 m resolution. The maps are provided using Byte type to significantly reduce file size. Predicted from a global compilation of soil points. Also available for download: soil organic stock maps in in kg / m2 (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1475453) and bulk density maps in kg / m3 (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1475970). Processing steps are described in detail here. Antarctica is not included.
