Cranfield University: Soil Carbon Density Data Wales (3rd Party Data)

Natural Resources Wales (NRW) holds copies of Cranfield datasets which containing soil and soil-related information for Wales. This is a spatial dataset owned by Cranfield University detailing the soil's carbon density across Wales at a 1km grid cell scale. This dataset provides users with a summary of the stock carbon in the soils across three layer depths 0-30 cm (map 30), 30-100 cm (map 100) and 100-150 cm (map GT100) based on the averages associated with Cranfield University's Horizon data.

This dataset is derived from three datasets: - NATMAP vector: Derived from the National Soil Map, this displays the 300 mapped soil associations at a scale of 1:250,000. Non spatial dataset: - HORIZON Fundamentals: Includes very detailed descriptions of the texture and other properties pertaining to the soils. This dataset provides the most detailed description of each horizon, or horizontal layer, determined for the soil series. It is based heavily on laboratory based analyses. - HORIZON Hydraulics: Includes very detailed descriptions of the hydraulic properties pertaining to each layer, or horizon for each of the soils. This data is based heavily on laboratory based analyses.
