| Stand density (trees ha−1) | DBH (cm) | SBD (g cm−3) | SOC (mg g−1) | TN (mg g−1) | AN (mg g−1) | TP (mg g−1) | AP (mg g−1) | Soil pH |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3428 ± 283 | 10.42 ± 0.15 | 1.05 ± 0.08 | 22.87 ± 0.3 | 1.24 ± 0.04 | 0.11 ± 0.004 | 0.45 ± 0.02 | 0.003 ± 0.000 | 4.51 ± 0.04 |
DBH: diameter at breast height; SBD: soil bulk density; SOC: soil organic C; TN: soil total N; AN: available nitrogen; TP: soil total P; AP: available phosphorus.
