Abstract
Soil organic carbon pool is very important parameter to understand the health of the soil. Therefore it is necessary to have a check on the organic content and its related soil parameters which effects its distribution in various layers of the soil. pH and bulk density are negatively correlated with the SOC content. In the tropical dry deciduous forest of Ranchi, pH ranged from 5.95- 7.12 in the 0-30 cm, 30-60 cm and 60-90 cm depths and it increased with depth (F= 5.12, p
