A multilevel assessment of sediment bioremediation with bioturbating macrofauna [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Estuaries and coastal intertidal environments supply important ecosystem services and resources. Within these systems, sediments play a crucial role in processing organic inputs and providing nutrients for local food webs. Benthic macrofauna and sediment

Effects of hypoxia on benthic macrofauna and bioturbation in the Estuary and Gulf of St. Lawrence, Canada [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Towards an ecological index for tropical soil quality based on soil macrofauna Em busca de um índice ecológico para a qualidade de solo tropical com base na macrofauna edáfica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The objective of this work was to construct a simple index based on the presence/absence of different groups of soil macrofauna to determine the ecological quality of soils.

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 ...

Macrofauna edáfica asociada con sistemas agroforestales en la Amazonía Colombiana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
La densidad, riqueza y diversidad de la macrofauna edáfica son afectadas, entre otros factores, por la configuración de los agroecosistemas y la estacionalidad de la precipitación.

Response of intertidal benthic macrofauna to migrating megaripples and hydrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Migrating flow-transverse mesoscale intertidal bedforms (megaripples or dunes) may pose disturbance but may also provide heterogeneity in microhabitats to the inhabiting fauna.

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

Soil macrofauna density and diversity across a chronosequence of tropical forest restoration in Southeastern Brazil

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2017
Edaphic macrofauna must be better studied if we want to take advantage of their full potential for the restoration of tropical ecosystems. We investigated changes in edaphic macrofauna density and diversity along a secondary succession chronosequence in ...

Influence of different Eucalyptus hybrids on soil macrofauna

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
The present work aimed to evaluate the influence of different eucalyptus hybrids on the edaphic macrofauna community. It is hypothesized that the density and diversity of edaphic fauna are influenced by the quantity and quality of the litter deposited by
