Impact of land use type and altitudinal gradient on topsoil organic carbon and nitrogen stocks in the semi-arid watershed of northern Ethiopia

Understanding the role of soils in the soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) cycle is essential, assumed that these parameters are among the key soil quality indicators in a given landscape. Nothing but their status is in a state of continual flux due to land-use, soil management practic...
