Abstract

The dynamic character of forest soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks is demonstrated in the simulation model TransparC2U. The model has up to 10 layers, each with two pools with first order kinetics running for 40 years. The model is aimed at teaching soil science to a broad audience in academia, extension services, secondary schools and public life. The learning objective of the model is to bring about an understanding of SOC dynamics over time, uncertainty, and the complexity of the soil profile with its pedogenesis represented by soil horizons. The user works in an illustrated spreadsheet calculator with options for instant and interactive exploration of the multiple uncertainties and constraints on forest SOC stocks. The user divides the initial SOC stock in each horizon into two pools, Cnew with faster mineralization, and Cold with very slow mineralization, based on their knowledge of horizon designations and stabilization mechanisms.
