Table 3. Summary of statistical parameters for soil organic carbon (SOC) concentrations at different soil depths.
Variables | SOC (g kg−1) | |||
0–10 cm | 10–20 cm | 20–30 cm | 30–40 cm | |
Maximum | 4.5 | 3.9 | 4.3 | 3.6 |
Minimum | 0.4 | 0.5 | 0.5 | 0.5 |
Mean | 1.6 a | 1.5 ab | 1.4 b | 1.4 b |
SD | 0.6 | 0.6 | 0.6 | 0.6 |
CV | 36.8 | 38.5 | 41.0 | 42.1 |
Skewness | 1.83 | 1.26 | 1.64 | 1.15 |
Kurtosis | 5.95 | 2.40 | 4.66 | 1.04 |
P of K-S test | 0.001 | 0.012 | 0.009 | 0.006 |
SD, standard deviation; CV, coefficient of variation. Mean values followed by the same letter are not significantly different (α = 0.05) at different soil depths using the LSD method.
