Sampling probes affect bulk density and soil organic carbon measurements

Abstract Soil sampling equipment can be a major source of bias in soil organic carbon (SOC) stock estimations. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of sampling probes on soil bulk density (BD) and SOC stocks calculated using fixed depth (FD) and equivalent soil mass (ESM) methods....
