Effects of Bioturbation by Earthworms on Litter Flammability in Young and Mature Afforested Stands
The quantity, quality, and accumulation rate of plant litter play a key role in forest floor flammability and, by extension, fire regimes. The varying foliage properties of different tree species also determine litter’s decomposition and its accumulation

Digging into dirt: Rewilding with threatened mammals shapes soil‐emerging insect assemblages
By comparing insect communities across treatments at two time points, we show that reintroduced digging mammals shape soil‐emerging insect assemblages. This provides empirical evidence that restoring ecosystem engineers may drive broader community‐level change in semi‐arid ecosystems. Abstract Digging mammals function as ecosystem engineers by altering

New ichnological findings in Hauterivian sandstones of Mountainous Adygeya
Background. Trace fossils are highly informative objects for geological investigations. However, the information about their distribution in sedimentary settings lacks completeness.

ABSTRACT Nano‐enabled fertilizers can enhance biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) and yield in legumes; yet, their interactions with earthworms remain poorly understood. Herein, we performed a 120‐day greenhouse experiment applying low‐dose n‐MoS2 at 10 mg kg−1 with earthworms to evaluate interactive effects on soybean yield and underlying mechanisms ...

Anthropogenic Carbon Isotope Signals in North Atlantic Water Masses at 48°N
Abstract Deep‐water masses are formed in the North‐Atlantic, making studies of δ13C of dissolved CO2 in this region key to monitor and understand the spreading of anthropogenic carbon into the ocean interior. The objective of this study is to quantify the Suess effect (SE) in North Atlantic water masses using sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) as the ...
