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 ...

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.

Benthic trophic interactions in an Antarctic shallow water ecosystem affected by recent glacier retreat [PDF]
, 2015 The western Antarctic Peninsula is experiencing strong environmental changes as a consequence of ongoing regional warming. Glaciers in the area are retreating rapidly and increased sediment-laden meltwater runoff threatens the benthic biodiversity at ...

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

Effects of hypoxia on benthic macrofauna and bioturbation in the Estuary and Gulf of St. Lawrence, Canada [PDF]
, 2010 The bottom water in the 4300 m deep Lower St. Lawrence Estuary (LSLE) is persistently hypoxic in contrast to the normoxic bottom waters in the Gulf of St. Lawrence (GSL). We photographed the seabed at 11 stations in the Estuary and Gulf of St.
