- Abstract
The article focuses on the study on the changes on soil organic carbon (SOC) and total soil nitrogen (TN) labile and bulk pools with afforestation during rainfall in Rio de la Plata in Argentina and Uruguay. The study examined the sites in Rio de la Plata grassland with Eucalyptus plantation. Results reveal that changes on SOC and TN with afforestation were correlated with plantation age but were not linked with mean annual precipitation (MAP).
