CARBON STOCKS IN LITTLE AND SILESIAN BESKIDS SOILS AGRICULTURAL USE

摘要

Organic carbon stocks (SOC_s) were determined in 14 pedons of the Little and Silesian Beskids (7 from each one: arable land and grassland) and compared with the C-stocks occurring in the soils of Ciezkowickie and Silesian Foothills. They were similarto SOC_s in the soils of the Silesian Foothills, but significantly higher than in the soils of the Ciezkowickie Foothills. The participation of SOC_s 0-30 cm layer at the stocks of this element in the whole pedon was higher than in the soils of the foothills. Different types of land used (arable land, grassland) did not affect the quantity of SOC_s in pedons and layers.
