How feedback loops between meso- and macrofauna and organic residues contrasting in chemical quality determine decomposition dynamics in soils [PDF]
Heliyon, 2023 The concept of feedback loops between changes in chemical quality of decomposing organic residues and changes in faunal communities was employed in studying how such feedback loops, representing distinct ecological successional stages, determine ...

Nitrous oxide emission by aquatic macrofauna [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009 A large variety of aquatic animals was found to emit the potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide when nitrate was present in the environment. The emission was ascribed to denitrification by ingested bacteria in the anoxic animal gut, and the exceptionally high N 2 O-to-N 2

Soil macrofauna in green manures preceding cotton growing
Bioscience Journal, 2020 The objective of this work was to evaluate the abundance of the soil macrofauna in four green manure species, before the cotton crop. The experimental design was a randomized block design with four treatments: Mucuna pruriens (gray mucuna), Canavalia ...

Stimulation of microbial nitrogen cycling in aquatic ecosystems by benthic macrofauna: mechanisms and environmental implications [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 Invertebrate animals that live at the bottom of aquatic ecosystems (i.e., benthic macrofauna) are important mediators between nutrients in the water column and microbes in the benthos.

Floresta e Ambiente, 2019 The edaphic macrofauna may reflect changes in soil use. This study aimed to answer two questions: (1) Has the management of eucalyptus by girdling, promote stimulation or inhibition in the guilds of the edaphic macrofauna? (2) Can soil macrofauna be used

Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management, 2019 The role of tropical forests for maintaining environmental functions is decreasing due to the rapid changes to agricultural purposes. Agroforestry system is assumed to be an alternative system which reduces the negative impact of the conversion in term ...
