Macro-morphological humus form descriptors were recorded using a spatially explicit sample design at stand level. Leaf litter composition and light intensity accounting for stand management as well as bulk density for harvesting practices soil compaction were also recorded. A multiple correspondence analysis MCA and geostatistics were used to assess humus form variability and heterogeneity as well as the spatial correlation between stand characteristics and humus forms. Humus form variability and activity were greater under the mixed stand than under the pure one. Geostatistics revealed that humus form patchiness was greater under the mixed stand than under the pure one and the improvement in decomposition processes seemed to be confined to spatial distribution of hornbeam litterfall. From a practical viewpoint these results could provide ideas on the way of mixing tree species at stand level. We assume that with a given percentage of mull-forming tree species a dispersed tree mixture provides a more extensive improvement than a clumped mixture. humus form pure stand mixed stand geostatistics spatial pattern heterogeneity Fagus sylvatica Carpinus betulus Résumé - Variabilité et hétérogénéité des formes d humus à l echelle du peuplement comparaison entre peuplement pur de hêtre et forêt .
