Soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics affect soil quality, agricultural productivity and atmospheric CO2 concentration. Despite the need for spatial assessments of SOC content over time, reliable estimates from traditional field survey methods are limited by data availability; where measurements are often made at discrete point locations, at a coarse sample spacing or over a limited spatial extent. Remote sensing (RS) is in a strong position to provide spatially distributed, reproducible, scale-appropriate and resource-efficient measurements of SOC content and fluxes at field, landscape and regional scales. This paper provides a critical review of optical RS techniques for such applications. The first part of the paper reviews the methods, instruments and techniques used for developing predictive models for monitoring spatial SOC content. Secondly, sources of spatio-temporal SOC variations are examined, including the lateral transfer of SOC by erosion, soil structural, breakdown and land management practices, in the context of RS data and techniques. The key challenges of using RS to monitor SOC contents are discussed along with opportunities for improving SOC predictions within a spatial framework. Such opportunities include the use of ancillary data, scale-specific methods, improved development of spectral libraries and better integration of RS technologies into empirical and simulation SOC models. This paper aims to provide a transparent assessment and practical guide to RS techniques and products in order to further advance and better incorporate the use of RS methods within soil science.
