- HWSD at 1 km, v1.10_ECO_I (global).
In v1.10_ECO_I, maps with missing data (relative to the land/sea mask from ECOCLIMAP_I) are corrected, setting the default value 0.33 for sand and clay in missing data points. NB: for the moment the correction wasn’t performed for soc maps.

Data from SOILGRIDS 250m v2.0 Source: https://soilgrids.org/
Global data, at 10 arc-sec resolution (~300m), given in fraction by percent weight (%). For missing values (Antarctica, central greenland, some high latitude regions and urban areas) a value of 33% is applied. Visualize data for sand

Data are also available for different layers:
Warning: The currently distributed SURFEX code does not allow the use of different sand and clay fractions depending on the layer, but this will be possible in the next version of SURFEX V9.1.0.
