Spatial explicit estimates of carbon stocks in blue carbon ecosystems across China

For the first time, we present spatially explicit estimates of soil organic carbon stocks (SOCS), aboveground and belowground living biomass carbon stocks (AGBC and BGBC) in BCEs across China, using data-driven methods based on a total of 1,670 soil measurements of SOCS and SOC and 1,229 samples of living biomass.
