Notes: Values are mean ± standard deviation C stock per soil depth. Within a column, different lowercase letters are significantly different at P < 0.05 between soil depths. Within a row (Total), different uppercase letters are significantly different at P < 0.05 between LULC types. Abbreviation: BL – bushland, C1 – intensively cultivated land, C2 – moderately cultivated land, SL – shrubland, C3 – sparsely cultivated land
