Organic carbon fraction #4

Open ktoddbrown opened 3 years ago

ktoddbrown commented 3 years ago

Organic carbon fraction is a carbon mass, I'm including loss on ignition because often loi is measured to calculate organic carbon fraction. Note that for now I'm suggestion that we do not include soil organic carbon as a stock which is often organic carbon fraction combined with bulk density and coarse fraction.

Ex: ISCN3 layer table.
