Carbon dioxide emissions to air, from soil inorganic carbon stock change, caused by land use change (e.g., a change from forest land to cropland). Stock changes caused by changes in Site management (e.g., changes in tillage practice) should be recorded separately by using the term [CO2, to air, soil inorganic carbon stock change, management change](/term/co2ToAirSoilInorganicCarbonStockChangeManagementChange).
