caption: "(a) Spatial mean of carbon\r\ndensity in stocks over the 2005–2050 simulation period (red bar, 2016). (b) Number of pixels across the range of\r\ncarbon density for 2016. (c) Total carbon storage in soils and vegetation for grasslands of the conterminous United\r\nStates, simulated using the Erosion-Deposition-Carbon-Model (EDCM). Model simulations started in 1992 with initial\r\nsoil carbon data from the Soil Survey Geographic database (SSURGO) and future climate projection from the Model\r\nfor Interdisciplinary Research on Climate (MIROC; Liu et al., 2012a; Liu et al., 2014; Zhu et al., 2011). The Moderate\r\nResolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) net primary production products from 2001 to 2011 were used to\r\nconstrain EDCM simulations, and the inverse model parameter values were used for future projections. Key: g C, grams of carbon."
