Source: R/organic_carbon.R

This function calculates the amount of organic carbon in the soil

calc_organic_carbon(A_SOM_LOI, D_BDS, D_RD)

Arguments

A_SOM_LOI

(numeric) The percentage organic matter in the soil

D_BDS

(numeric) The bulk density of the soil

D_RD

(numeric) The root depth of the crop

Value

The total amount of Carbon in the soil (kg C / ha). A numeric value.

Examples
