This involves both the chemical and physical properties of the #soil
2. #NgarachuSoil
Within #StokeParkEstate, an investigation was carried out to find out whether Total Organic Carbon (TOC), and Total Carbon (TC) vary in land type;
Woodland and Meadow🏞️
3. #NgarachuSoil
It was found that both TOC and TC levels had a visible dip from woodland to meadow between the 0 and 20m distance that was measured.
However, the results did not show a consistent decrease in both variables in the 25metres measured from woodland to meadow.
4. #NgarachuSoil
This study was eventually proved to not be a significant predictor of #soilcarbon concentration as statistical tests were done and showed a lack of significance in relation to distance away from woodland.
Other studies were found to share the same results.
5. #NgarachuSoil
In the future, research can be improved by;
a) Looking into other processes such as seed dispersal, microclimates, plant growth, and more.
b) Extending the length of the transects to increase the number of results collected.
