A new data set for estimating organic carbon storage to 3 m depth in soils of the northern circumpolar permafrost region

High-latitude terrestrial ecosystems are key components in the global carbon cycle. The Northern Circumpolar Soil Carbon Database (NCSCD) was developed to quantify stocks of soil organic carbon (SOC) in the northern circumpolar permafrost region (a total area of 18.7 &times; 10<sup>6</s...
