Multi‐proxy sequence stratigraphy of a mixed carbonate–siliciclastic shelf across the Jurassic–Cretaceous transition

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 4, September 2026.
An integrated facies, MS and XRF‐based approach applied to the Tithonian–Berriasian Sidi Khalif Formation (central Tunisia) resolves five Tithonian and eight Berriasian third‐order sequences, showing how mixed carbonate–siliciclastic shelves record coupled eustatic, climatic and tectonic controls and providing a transferable template for similar mud ...

Dynamic of epigeous macrofauna under organic soil management in the Brazilian semi-arid region
Dinâmica da macrofauna epígea sob manejo orgânico do solo no semi-árido brasileiro

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2012
Soil macrofauna is responsible for soil fertility through cycling of nutrients, tillage and fragmentation of organic matter, as well as through the association between groups of fauna with conserved and/or degraded pedoenvironments.

Oyster reef habitat characteristics and nekton communities vary with restoration method in a large‐scale project

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Restoration in coastal ecosystems is revitalizing populations of foundation species that provide valuable habitat to support biodiversity and ecosystem services. The goals of oyster reef restoration include increasing oyster populations and oyster reef ecosystem services such as provision of habitat for commercially and ecologically valuable ...

Litter Decomposition and Diversity of Soil Macrofauna on Industrial Plantation Forest of Nyawai

Jurnal Ilmu Kehutanan, 2017
The use of fast-growing tree species is necessary to meet the demand of timber. However, the information with regard the fertility of the soil for planting of these species is still limited.

Do natural disturbances have significant effects on sandy beach macrofauna of Southeastern Brazil? [PDF]

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2019
The role of morphodynamic features such as grain size, swash climate and wave action on the macrofauna of beaches are well-known. However, few studies have investigated natural disturbances as potential drivers of temporal community variations.

Conservation Agriculture Improves Soil Resilience by Integrating Physical, Chemical, and Biological Pathways

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Conservation agriculture significantly enhances soil resilience in tropical agroecosystems, especially in semiarid areas characterized by high degradation susceptibility, mostly related to the occurrence of shallow soils and increasing climate stress.

Soil Contamination Around the Copper Smelter and the Use of Soil Microarthropods as Bioindicators

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 15, Page 11384-11403, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil contamination from smelter emissions, including heavy metals (HM), rare earth elements (REEs), and sulfur, poses a significant threat to soil ecosystems. In the immediate vicinity of the Głogów Copper Smelter, HM concentrations were several times higher than in more distant forest stands.

Transport by Benthic Macrofauna: Functional Classification and Biogeochemical Response [PDF]

, 2009
Burrowing and reworking activities by benthic macrofauna regulate rates and pathways during organic matter mineralisation in bioturbated sediments. In so doing, they also affect the overall cycling of elements crucial in the biosphere (e.g.

Long-term impact of no-till conservation agriculture on abundance and order diversity of soil macrofauna in continuous maize monocropping system

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science, 2018
Unsuitable soil management in agriculture is known to results in the deterioration of soil health and the decline of biodiversity. The experiment tested whether no-tillage with mulch (NT), could boost biological activity of soil macrofauna population in ...

Spatial and temporal patterns of bottom water euxinia in shallow areas of the southwestern Baltic Sea

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Sediments in productive coastal regions are hotspots of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) production through microbial sulfate reduction. Under anoxic seafloor conditions, H2S can escape the sediment and accumulate in bottom waters, where elevated concentrations render the benthic environment toxic, posing ecological and economic risks.
