Soil organic carbon (SOC) strongly influences soil properties. Thus, it is a key factor with respect to soil functions. While the impact of climate change on SOC and the role of soil as a potential carbon sink have been widely recognised, consistent SOC measurements over extended periods are still rare although very necessary for model calibration and validation.
