Popis: The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of representative land use types and land cover (LUT/LC) of heavily deforested areas on soil properties in semi-arid region of Türkiye. Some of the soil properties have been measured on a grid with a 50 m sampling distance on the top-soil (0-15 cm depth). Data has been analyzed by using Ordinary Kriging/Spherical geostatistical model. Results indicated that the soil properties differed in terms of organic carbon (SOC), pH, bulk density, and the amount of sand, depending on the land uses in the study areas. The SOC concentration of top-soil layers has referred a significant difference (P
