Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Mean SOC stocks in SRWC were 1.7 times higher than in cropland in the top 5 cm of soil.
- Intervention effect SOC stocks in the plough layer were higher in SRWC than in cropland by a factor of 1.2.
- Intervention effect No change in SOC stocks was detectable for the 0–40 cm soil layer after conversion to SRWC.
- Intervention effect No change in SOC stocks was detectable for the entire 0–100 cm soil layer after conversion to SRWC.
- Association The SOC stock ratio of SRWC to cropland did not change significantly with time since conversion.
- Association The SOC stock ratio tended to increase over time in the top 40 cm, without statistical significance.
- Association The SOC stock ratio was negatively correlated with SOC in cropland and with fine soil percentage.
