Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.We used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding across 135 temperate forest plots in Germany to examine how deadwood, tree‐related microhabitats (TreMs), and forest structure shape saproxylic arthropod communities. Structural equation modeling revealed that TreM richness and deadwood volume are key predictors of arthropod diversity, highlighting the ...

Evaluation of Pit-trap Transects With Varied Trap Spacing in a Northern Michigan Forest [PDF]
, 2017 The study compared effects of four distances between traps (range 0.5-4.0 m) on arthropod captures. Twelve traps were aligned in each of four transects, and 20 samples.

Contrasting effects of temperature across trophic levels in geothermally warmed soil food webs
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.Global warming is altering the structure and dynamics of ecological communities, with significant consequences for soil food webs. Rising temperatures are expected to accelerate metabolic rates in organisms, potentially altering species interactions, and the structure and energetics of food webs.

The effects of leaching from alkaline red mud on soil biota: modelling the conditions after the Hungarian red mud disaster [PDF]
, 2013 A soil column experiment was set up to investigate the effect of red mud from Ajka (Hungary) on a typical soil profile from the concerned area. The chemical changes caused by the leachate of the red mud and the effects of these changes on living ...

Incorporating soil biological and functional attributes to advance ecological restoration
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 735-746, May 2026.Earth is currently experiencing a mass extinction crisis, predominantly driven by anthropogenic activities, with land use change causing widespread loss and degradation of native ecosystems and indigenous species. There is an urgent need to halt this trend and restore degraded habitat to preserve biodiversity and protect threatened plants and animals ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 598-620, May 2026.In a given number of samples, grassland sward islets contain more species of arthropods than the surrounding sward. When corrected for abundance, there is no difference in species richness, suggesting that the effect of islets might purely be to concentrate arthropods. The community structure differences indicated by non‐metric multidimensional scaling
