Estimated agricultural soil carbon fluxes were produced using the CENTURY biochemical model (NREL-CSU), a point model that produces monthly or annual time-step estimates of soil carbon stocks, given specified site, climate and management scenarios. Point estimates were extrapolated to a county-level basis using spatial databases of land use, climate and soils. Data sources: 2006 NCDC; 2005 NRCS;1997 USDA; 2005 CTIC.
Scenario 1 (Default): This map shows estimated soil carbon fluxes respective to a continuation of existing land use practices on currently associated areas.
