- 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.

- SOILGRIDS V2.0 at 10 arc-sec resolution (~300m)
Data from SOILGRIDS 250m v2.0 Source: https://soilgrids.org/
Global data, at 10 arc-sec resolution ( 300m).
The original dataset does not include values for Antarctica, central Greenland, very northern lands and urban areas. These gaps are filled by arbitrary values in the dataset provided here.
clay & sand : given in kg/kg. Missing values on land are set to 0.33.
organic carbon stock (ocs) : given in kg/m². Missing values on land are set to 0.

Data are also available for different layers :(0-5cm, 5-15cm, 15-30cm, 30-60cm, 60-100cm, 100-200cm)
Warning: The currently distributed SURFEX code does not allow the use of these data detailled by layer, but this will be possible in the next version of SURFEX V9.1.0.
