Abstract
Present study was conducted in the Department of Soil Science JNKVV, Jabalpur during 2018-2020. GPS based 531 soil samples were collected from each domain viz., Bhopal, Jabalpur, Vidisha and Hoshangabad of 10.1 Agro ecological sub region (AESR). The samples analyzed for soil organic carbon (SOC) and calcium carbonate (CaCO3) then soil organic carbon density (SOCD), total organic carbon density (TOCD), soil inorganic carbon density (SICD) and total carbon density (TCD) in Mg C ha-1 were calculated. The results of SOCD, TOCD, SICD and TCD ranged from 4.73 to 25.12, 9.22 to 48.98, 1.00 to 21.29 and 11.08 to 68.80 Mg C ha-1 with mean value of 12.19, 23.78, 7.58 and 31.36 Mg C ha-1 in AESR 10.1 and Coefficient of variation (CV) 37.58, 37.58, 50.88 and 31.24 %. The overall trend in SOCD was Bhopal > Vidisha > Jabalpur > Hoshanagabad and SICD was Vidisha > Hoshanagabad > Jabalpur >Bhopal while TCD was in trend of Bhopal > Vidisha > Hoshangabad> Jabalpur.
 Geo-statistical indicated that Ordinary Kriging used and all variogram were in isotropic form. In Bhopal domain, Gaussian model best fitted for of SOCD, TOCD, and TCD but spherical model for SICD. In Jabalpur domain, exponential domain best fitted for TCD and TOCD but for SICD, spherical model and for SOCD, Gaussian model is best fitted. In Vidisha domain, exponential model best fitted for all. In Hoshangabad domain, exponential model is best fitted for SOCD and TOCD and Gaussian and J-Bessel model best fitted for TCD and SIC, respectively. The nugget/ sill (N/S) ratio was <25% which exhibit strong SD only for SICD in Bhopal domain. The N/S ratio was found to be >25% but <75% which showed moderate SD, for SOCD, TOCD and TC, TOCD, SICD and TCD; SOCD, TOCD, SICD and TCD and SOCD, TOCD, SICD and TCD in Bhopal, Jabalpur, Vidisha and Hoshangabad domain, respectively. The correlation range (m) for SOCD, TOCD, SICD and TCD are 5448.413, 4809.535, 360.522, and 5113.050; 7201.044, 6601.044, 611.651, and 8438.711; 5734.559, 7334.398, 1323.773, and 7881.289 and 5418.684, 5433.206, 8887.656, and 1836.274 in Bhopal, Jabalpur, Vidisha and Hoshangabad domain, respectively. The carbon density was found in order of Jabalpur> Hoshangabad >Vidisha > Bhopal.
