Can Carbon Sequestration in Tasmanian “Wet” Eucalypt Forests Be Used to Mitigate Climate Change? Forest Succession, the Buffering Effects of Soils, and Landscape Processes Must Be Taken into Account

Figure 5

Estimation graphs [45] comparing C/N ratios of soils under rainforest and mixed forests for (a) uppermost (A1 or B1) horizons and (b) lowermost (B3, C, BCg, or Bhs) horizons. The 95% confidence interval, indicated by vertical black bars, is obtained via bootstrap resampling (5000 repetitions). The horizontal black lines represent mean C/N ratios for each forest type. The vertical curve indicates the resampled distribution.
