Soil pool of organic carbon and total nitrogen. Pool of organic C (a) and total N (b) in soil profiles to 100 cm depth (data for 60–100 cm were computed by extrapolation) under beech (black bars) and pine stands (white bars). Total profile refers to mineral soil plus organic layer. Significantly different pool sizes between the stand types are marked with an asterisk (ANOVA). Given are means and standard error of each nine stands, in which each 10 profiles were investigated
