Soil organic carbon (SOC) and SOC stock (SOCS), underpin soil health and carbon sequestration. However, their spatial controls in topographically heterogeneous landscapes remain unclear. This study aims to investigate the spatial variability of SOC and SOCS along three toposequences in the Lake Haramaya watershed, Eastern Ethiopia, using depth‐explicit
