Soil organic carbon (SOC) plays an important role in maintaining and improving soil fertility and quality, in addition to mitigating climate change. Understanding SOC spatial variability is fundamental for describing soil resources and predicting SOC. In this study, SOC content and SOC mass were estimated based on a soil survey of a small watershed in the Dan River, China. The spatial heterogeneity of SOC distribution and the impacts of land-use types, elevation, slope, and aspect on SOC were also assessed. Field sampling was carried out based on a 100 m by 100 m grid system overlaid on the topographic map of the study area, and samples were collected in three soil layers to a depth of 40 cm. In total, 222 sites were sampled and 629 soil samples were collected. The results showed that classical kriging could successfully interpolate SOC content in the watershed. Contents of SOC showed strong spatial heterogeneity based on the values of the coefficient of variation and the nugget ratio, and this was attributed largely to the type of land use. The range of the semi-variograms increased with increasing soil depth. The SOC content in the soil profile decreased as soil depth increased, and there were significant (P < 0.01) differences among the three soil layers. Land use had a great impact on the SOC content. ANOVA indicated that the spatial variation of SOC contents under different land use types was significant (P < 0.05). The SOC mass of different land-use types followed the order grassland > forestland > cropland. Mean SOC masses of grassland, forestland, and cropland at a depth of 0–40 cm were 5.87, 5.61, and 5.07 kg m–2, respectively. The spatial variation of SOC masses under different land-use types was significant (P < 0.05). ANOVA also showed significant (P < 0.05) impact of aspect on SOC mass in soil at 0–40 cm. Soil bulk density played an important role in the assessment of SOC mass. In conclusion, carbon in soils in the source area of the middle Dan River would increase with conversion from agricultural land to forest or grassland.

Land evaluation is one of the most important tools for integrated land use management for sustainable agricultural and land use planning. The aim of this study is to evaluate the land suitability for current land use in akkar plain- Tartous Governorate. Depending on the elevation and land use, nine soil profiles representing the main physiographic units have been chosen. Soil samples were collected for conducting some chemical and physical analyses such as: soil texture (sand%, silt% and clay%), the content of organic matter OM, Cation Exchange Capacity CEC (cmol(+)/kg -1clay). The results of the soil analysis showed that the soil texture was Clay, and the pH values were between 7.13-8.5. Furthermore, The cation exchange capacity were ranging from (12-33) (cmol(+)/kg -1clay). Results of land evaluation showed that the limiting factors either fertility factors such as high pH in the villages of Beit-kamouna, Majdaloun-albaher and Dier-hbash, or physical factors such as shallowness depth of soil. The study concluded that the suitability class ranged from S2 to N2, which emphasis the importance of reconsidering the type of land use in the study area.


This study focuses on identifying the potential lands for growing groundnut in Dien Chau district of Nghe An province (Vietnam), where groundnut is one of the major crops and brings high income for farmers. Based on the ecological requirements of groundnut, six criteria, including Soil Type, Soil Texture, Soil Depth, Slope, Average Temperature, and Average Total Rainfall in the planting season, were used. The Analytic Hierarchy Process method, commonly used in agricultural land use planning, was utilized to determine each criterion's weights via experts’ opinions. A pairwise comparison matrix was established to support this assessment process. The results revealed that Soil Texture showed the highest weight (0.31727) for groundnut farming, which was followed by Average Temperature (0.21131), Soil Type (0.17426), and Soil Depth (0.13982). Slope and Average Total Rainfall were the lowest weight factors, with 0.08122 and 0.07612, respectively. The weighted sum overlay analysis was implemented by ArcGIS software to generate the spatial distribution of land suitability of groundnut. The land suitability map indicated that 6830.07 ha (22.26%) of the studied area was highly suitable (S1), 10413.85 ha (33.95%) was moderately suitable (S2), 4336.76 ha (14.14%) was marginally suitable (S3), and 424.99 ha (1.39%) was not suitable (N). The total area of constrained area, including Waterbody and Built-up Land, was 8671.39 ha, accounting for 28.27% of the total area. Finally, the proposed land for groundnut cultivation was 12928.69 ha. The outcomes of this study may be regarded as a good reference for local government in agricultural land use planning.

Land evaluation is an assessment of the potential of land resources. The results of land evaluation will provide information on the best use of it which will lead to expected value of production. This study aimed to determine the level of suitability of the cocoa plantations in Bantaeng Regency using the FAO and Sys methods; make a map of the actual and potential land suitability. The results of the analysis showed that the actual cocoa land suitability of the FAO method was presented in distribution points according to marginal (S3rn) with limiting factor of rooting media and nutrients availability. While the actual land suitability analysis of the cocoa Sys method was not suitable (N1cSf) with climate limiting factors, the soil physical properties and soil fertility. Based on the limiting factors the physical properties of the two methods, there were similarities in effective depth (FAO) and soil depth (Sys), S3 parameters according to FAO and N1 according to Sys. The limiting factor for the soil chemical properties of the two methods was also the same, the availability of S3 (FAO) nutrients, while the (Sys) method was the soil fertility N1.

Understanding distribution of soil organic carbon (SOC) in soil profile is important for assessing soil fertility and SOC stock because it varies with soils of different vegetation and land use types. In this context, the objective of this research is that it was conducted to determine key variance in the SOC stock in three different soil layers, 0–20 cm, 20–40 cm, and 40–60 cm of different vegetation covers of Shivapuri Nagarjun National Park of Kathmandu district, Nepal. Overall field measurement was based on standard national methods. We used the dichromate digestion method to analyse SOC concentrations. The highest SOC concentration (%) was recorded as 4.87% in 0–20 cm of oak forest and lowest 0.42% in 40–60 cm of Chir pine forest. Forest types (oak, upper mixed hardwood, lower mixed hardwood, and Chir pine) had SOC stock 149.62, 104.47, 62.5, and 50.85 t/ha, respectively, up to 60 cm depth. However, these values are significantly different ( p = 0.02 ) at 5% level of significance when comparing means between the forest types. The SOC stock was decreased with increased soil depth, though not significantly different at 5% level of significance. Further study with respect to different climate, soil, forest, and land use type is recommended.
