SOTER-based soil parameter estimates for the Indo-Gangetic Plains of India (ver. 1.0)
Entry ID:
ISRIC_SOTWISigpIndia
Summary
Abstract:
This harmonized set of soil parameter estimates for the Indo-Gangetic Plains (IGP) of India, at scale 1:1 000 000, has been derived from soil and terrain data collated in SOTER format by staff of the National Bureau of Soil Survey and Land Use Planning (NBSS & LUP) at Nagpur, India. The data set has been prepared for use in the project on "Assessment of soil organic carbon stocks and change at ...
