Abstract

The article presents the results of assessment of organic carbon stocks in the 0-30 cm soil layer in the forests of the Saralinsky section of the Volzhsko-Kamsky Nature Reserve. Three types of calculation were used: using reference values, as well as field and laboratory data. To determine the total stocks of organic carbon, reference data were linked to the forest taxation map, data obtained as a result of research – to the forest taxation map and soil map. Cartograms of organic carbon stocks in soils calculated using different methods have been compiled. It was shown that the use of reference values when calculating the total stocks of organic carbon in areas with a predominance of soddy-podzolic soils led to inflated results compared to calculations based on field and laboratory data. If they were linked to a forest taxation map – by 20%, to a soil map – by 40%. The overestimation of results when using reference values is explained by the fact that the reference data are calculated for a macroregion covering several soil zones. The need to develop regional standards for carbon stocks in soils has been confirmed
