The data come from soil and tree field surveys carried out in the 1970s in 348 sites. Organic C concentrations were usually measured in three major mineral soil horizons; for the remaining soil horizons, they were estimated using pedotransfer functions. The effect of soil order, drainage, and texture was analysed. Over 22 years, organic C accumulation rates (Mg C<sup>.<\/sup>ha<sup>-1.<\/sup>year<sup>-1<\/sup>) were 1.66 <u>+<\/u> 0.03 in vegetation biomass, 0.56 <u>+<\/u> 0.07 in forest floor, 0.86 <u>+<\/u> 0.47 in loamy soils (0-100 cm), and -0.18 <u>+<\/u> 0.24 in sandy soils (0-100 cm).
