Fig. 2. Whole mineral-soil C pools of old-growth forests of the Pacific Northwest. Each bar represents a forest and is the average of 1 to 8 pedons (see Table 2). Pooled within-forest CV is 34%. With n = 4 pedons per forest, a ratio of a higher mean to a lower mean >1.5 indicates two forests are significantly different, based on ANOVA of log-transformed values followed by the LSD test (
= 0.05); exact cut-off values of ratios differ among pairs of forests because of different numbers of pedons at different forests.
