About SOC + Android App

The soil organic carbon is very important because it is the largest store or reservoir of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems. Maintaining and increasing soil carbon is an option to reduce the amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere and thereby reduce or mitigate climate change.

In recent years, in all nations are working very intensively on the development of soil organic carbon inventories. The study of soil organic carbon is now a topic of great interest so it is recommended to know the amount of soil organic carbon along the profile to select and evaluate those areas that should be preserved.

On the other hand, in various scientific meetings we have observed errors in the calculation of soil organic carbon and, in the same way, professional no soil scientists have complications for the calculation of soil organic carbon.

COS + contains a simplified formula in the used the properties of the soil with the units in common use.

With COS + it is possible to make the calculations of the organic carbon in a quick and easy way. It is also possible to make estimates of the amount of organic carbon using the description of the soil profile in the field (contains aid for the estimation of the apparent density, stoniness and organic carbon in field).

Mexican engineers (company Skiu -Scientific Knowledge In Use, (http://www.actswithscience.com/apps/) have created a Smartphone App for calculate quickly and easily soil organic carbon in horizon and profile.
You will no longer be confused with conversions using App "SOC PLUS". You can save time in the calculation of soil organic carbon.
