According to the study, the pH and soil texture at particular locations ranged from slightly acidic to neutral, with the soil texture ranging from loam to sandy loam. Compared to mixed pine forests, mixed oak woods have a higher SOC stock. The range of the average SOC stock was 43.81 to 53.47 tons/ha in the degraded mixed pine forest site and 110.37 to 125.03 tons/ha in the non-degraded mixed oak forest site. In comparison to mixed pine forests, mixed oak forests were shown to have greater P2O5, K20, TN, and C:N ratios.}, keywords = {Forest, Kumaun Himalaya, Soil organic carbon, Carbon Stockpile.}, month = {October}, }
