MapBiomas Soil has developed the first series (beta collection) of annual maps of soil organic carbon (SOD) stocks in Brazil, covering the period 1985 to 2021. These maps were created using data from the SoilData Repository along with dozens of environmental covariates that represent the formation factors and transformation vectors of Brazilian soil. With a spatial resolution of 30 meters, the maps show SOC stocks in the first 30 cm, in tons per hectare (t/ha).

The results of this beta collection are available for download here.
