“…Various studies show that the soil carbon does reduce after forest clearing followed by agriculture, but the magnitude of CO 2 emissions from soils could be overestimated if the change in bulk density of the soil is not considered (Karhu et al, 2011;Murty et al, 2002). Our study also shows a decrease of soil carbon after conversion of land cover from forest to agriculture.…”

“…A number of studies have made comparisons on the site scale; simulated soil C stocks were about 20% smaller than measured at two sites in Switzerland (11.2 vs. 13.9 kg·m −2 at one site, 11.1 vs. 14.2 kg·m −2 at another) (Rühr and Eugster 2009). Good agreement between measured and simulated stocks and stock changes associated with afforestation and deforestation were found in Finland (Karhu et al 2011) and the Loess Plateau in China (Lu et al 2013). According to these validity tests, we considered the Yasso07 model and our approach suitable for the present study.…”

“…The establishment of either grassland or lands with perennial vegetation on degraded cropland has been proposed as an effective method for climate change mitigation since these land use types could increase SOC content and stock Heikkinen et al 2014). In contrast, soil loses its organic carbon into the atmosphere following the cultivation of the land that was previously covered by perennial vegetation (Karhu et al 2011;Ding et al 2013). In our study area, the land use and landscape were dramatically changed after the implementation of the GFG project.…”

“…Peng et al 2002;Karhu et al 2011;Palosuo et al 2012). However, there are several kinds of dynamic soil C models available varying in terms of model complexity and requirements of input information (Liski et al 2005;Peltoniemi et al 2007).…”
