Soil macrofauna diversity and structure under different management of pine-coffee agroforestry system

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Soil Macrofauna Abundance and Taxonomic Richness under Long-Term No-Till Conservation Agriculture in a Semi-Arid Environment of South Africa

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
Soil macrofauna are a critical component for ecosystem function and strongly affect production sustainability. The effect of fertiliser management practices, in different cropping systems, on soil macrofauna communities remains poorly understood in semi ...

Hydrocarbon influence on denitrification in bioturbated Mediterranean coastal sediments [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
An in situ experiment has been carried out inbioturbated Mediterranean coastal marine sediments (Gulfof Fos) in order to study the influence of hydrocarbons ondenitrification after 1, 4 and 6 months. In theabsence of hydrocarbons in the control sediments,

Short-term fate of phytodetritus in sediments across the arabian sea oxygen minimum zone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The short-term fate of phytodetritus was investigated across the Pakistan margin of the Arabian Sea at water depths ranging from 140 to 1850 m, encompassing the oxygen minimum zone (~100–1100 m).

Agroecological heuristics: Xi (Ξ) biomathematical models of alpha diversity and Lambda functional entropy index (λ) applied for macrofauna in diversified agroecosystems of Nicaragua

open access: yesJournal of Agriculture and Rural Development in the Tropics and Subtropics, 2021
Agriculture causes chaos on the macrofauna associated with agroecosystems. The functions developed by macrofauna species in agroecological environments are harmful, beneficial and fundamental for food production. In order to design Xi (Ξ) biomathematical

sOilFauna - a global synthesis effort on the drivers of soil macrofauna communities and functioning

open access: yesSoil Organisms, 2022
Understanding global biodiversity change, its drivers, and the ecosystem consequences requires a better appreciation of both the factors that shape soil macrofauna communities and the ecosystem effects of these organisms.
