106  Calculating carbon stock in litter within a plot
  The amount of carbon contained within litter in plot  is to be calculated using the following formula:
   Equation 17

  where:
 =   carbon stock in litter within plot  in tonnes per hectare of CO2‑e (t.ha‑1 CO2‑e).
 =   carbon fraction of dry biomass in litter as a proportion and applying a value of 0.5.
 =   total area of land sampled using litter sampling frame for plot , in hectares (ha).
 =   wet weight of the bulked sample for litter collected from plot , in kilograms (kg).
 =   dry‑wet weight ratio of litter calculated from sub‑samples collected on the same day that plot  was assessed.
