Fig. 3

Mean stocks of soil organic carbon in the mineral soil and organic layer. SOC stocks in the mineral soil (0–100 cm, data for 60–100 cm were computed by extrapolation) and the organic layers of the each nine beech (black bars) and pine stands (white bars) at the sites 1 to 9 (given are the means of 10 profiles per stand). Significantly different pool sizes between the stand types are marked with an asterisk (paired t-test)
