Forest soils represents the largest terrestrial carbon (C) pool and thus play a critical role in the global C cycle. Predicted climate change is expected to change the size of forest soil C pools by driving a shift in vegetation that will fundamentally transform the ecosystem. It is assumed that the nemoral deciduous tree species European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) will outcompete the boreal coniferous tree species Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) in southeastern Norway. The aim of this study was to investigate differences of C storage in the subsoil between a beech forest, a first-generation spruce forest located on a site of former beech forest, and a second-generation spruce forest. Measurements of C and nitrogen (N) concentration...
