Soil carbon stocks in tropical pasture systems in Colombia’s Orinoquía region: supporting readiness for climate finance
Key messages: ■ Using field measurements, it was found that pastures in clay soils in the Orinoquía region can store as more than 200 tCha-1 (0-100 cm). Results are 40% higher than the IPCC default values (0-30cm). ■ Close to 30% of the total SOC stock were found in the top 0-20 cm soil layer, highl...
