Abstract:

A two-factor ANOVA demonstrated significantly higher soil organic matter in mature forests (p=0.003), and significantly higher potassium concentration in secondary forests (p=0.005). ER (El Refugio), NB (Nicolas Bravo), and AN (Arroyo Negro) represent study locations from the drier north to wetter south, respectively.
