Abstract
Background and aims Across the world, about 264 million ha forest plantations are monospecific. This practice has been found to cause site productivity and soil fertility decline in the regions where forests have been harvested several times. To mitigate these problems, mixed-species plantations, especially with broadleaved and coniferous species, are preferred. Understanding the effects of introducing broadleaved tree in monospecific coniferous plantation on ecosystem carbon (C) storage and soil organic C (SOC) stability is critical to improve our understanding of forest C sequestration and C cycle.
