Realistic soil carbon sequestration considering food security and climate change

<p>This dataset contains soil organic carbon stocks as described in&nbsp;Keel et al. Global Change Biology (submitted)</p> <p>Annual soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks (t C ha-1, 0-30 cm depth) of Swiss agricultural soils simulated with the model RothC for the years 2020-2100. Simulations were performed for 240 strata (regions with similar agricultural production types, climatic conditions and clay content). The SOC stocks are weighted averages across strata for the national scale. &nbsp; &nbsp;<br> Each column contains SOC stocks for a specific combination of a climate model chains (nine in total) and an emission scenario (three in total: RCP 26, RCP 45, RCP 85) (specified in column header).&nbsp;</p> <p>The results include simulated SOC stocks for a baseline scenario and five soil carbon sequestration (SCS) scenarios (cover crops, biochar amendment at two rates, biochar amendment based on biomass from two agroforestry scenarios).&nbsp;<br> The SCS scenarios were only performed on cropland, therefore there is only a single file for grassland (the baseline scenario).&nbsp;<br> All simulations (i.e. baseline as well as the five scenarios) account for changes in crop shares and organic matter additions associated with growing food demand as well as climate change.&nbsp;</p> <p>The scenarios are described in Keel et al. Global Change Biology (submitted)</p> <p>CL_baseline: Baseline scenario for cropland (CL)&nbsp;<br> GL_baseline: Baseline scenario for permanent grassland (GL)<br> CL_cover_crops: Cover crop scenario for cropland &nbsp;<br> CL_biochar_I: Biochar I scenario for cropland &nbsp;<br> CL_biochar_II: Biochar II scenario for cropland &nbsp;<br> CL_agroforestry_I: Agroforestry I scenario for cropland&nbsp;<br> CL_agroforestry_II: Agroforestry II scenario for cropland &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
