Long-Term Observations of Soil Mesofauna

2010
General problems connected with planning, sampling, and data processing of long-term research of soil mesofauna are discussed, based on two case studies: (i) the Bremen study of predatory mites (Gamasina) covering 20 years of secondary succession on a ruderal site in northern Germany and (ii) the Mazsalaca study of the effects of climate warming on ...

Population dynamics of soil mesofauna in Soybean

Indian Journal of Entomology, 2019
This study is on the interaction between soil biological characteristics and weather factors with an field experiment conducted at the UAS, GKVK, Bengaluru. Significant difference in abundance of soil fauna was documented among the treatments, of which the best treatment (20 t farm yard manure/ha) for mesofauna was correlated with weather factors ...

Soil mesofauna of taiga burozems

Eurasian Soil Science, 2009
In the burozems of the plains, the composition of the invertebrates and saprophages (the prevailing primary destroyers) differed from that in the mountainous soils only by the absence of millipedes of the Geophilomorpha order. At the same time, the differences in these characteristics between the burozems and soddypodzolic soils of the neighboring ...

Assessment of soil biological degradation using mesofauna

Soil and Tillage Research, 2011
Abstract The aim of this work was to assess soil degradation by means of simple and relatively easy to measure biological indicators derived from mesofauna, and to provide criteria to derive threshold values from benchmark sites. We hypothesized (1) that simple biological attributes may be derived from soil mesofauna to be used as soil biological ...

Interactions Between Soil Mesofauna and Edible Ectomycorrhizal Mushrooms

2020
The ecological relationships between soil organisms are the result of the diversity present in a determined space and time, forming functional networks of biological activity. The mesofauna–fungal sporome interactions link the ecology of the mesofauna with the biology and function of the sporomes, allowing the sporome to be viewed as a reservoir of ...

Macrofauna and mesofauna from soil contaminated by oil extraction

Geoderma, 2018
Abstract Mexico is an oil producing country; the extraction of oil on land has left many sites with soil contaminated by oil spills. The aim of our study was to determine the impact of this contamination on the soil fauna; thus we compared the macro and mesofauna from a non contaminated soil to a moderately and highly polluted soil caused by oil ...

Micro and mesofauna: Pioneering sustainable solutions for fly ash rejuvenation

Journal of Environmental Management
Persistent accumulation of fly ash, a byproduct of coal combustion, poses significant environmental challenges due to its elevated levels of toxicity, heavy metal contamination, and ecological issues. Present review explores the ecological significance and functional potential of microfauna and mesofauna in mitigating environmental impacts, focusing on

The influence of vegetation structure on the development of soil mesofauna

Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 1989
Abstract Secondary succession of vegetation and soil mesofauna was followed for several years in 3 replicate experiments on artificially created synchronous successional and recultivated (grass) sites in 1980, 1982 and 1985. The data presented cover a period of 2 years, with special reference to the Gamasina (Acari).

DIVERSIDADE DA MESOFAUNA EM SISTEMA DE MANEJO SINTRÓPICO

Revista Contemporânea
O presente estudo objetivou avaliar a diversidade e a abundância da mesofauna edáfica em um sistema agroflorestal sintrópico e de uma área preservada de mata sucessional no agreste alagoano. A coleta do solo foi realizada nos meses de maio de 2022 e abril de 2023 e o método utilizado para extração da mesofauna foi o funil de Berlese-Tullgren modificado.
