Soil Arthropod Responses in Agroecosystem: Implications of Different Management and Cropping Systems

Agronomy, 2020
The EU’s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP 2014–2020) on soil management points to the combination of sustainable food production with environmental protection, reduction of CO2 emissions, and safeguarding of soil biodiversity.

Neo‐Taphonomic Analysis of Prey Bone Remains Accumulated by Golden Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos): A Case of Nests in Southern France

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 481-497, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) nests in rock cavities where it accumulates prey bone remains during the breeding season. Because nests can be reoccupied from year to year, these faunal elements can form remarkable bone accumulations and, in the sub‐fossil record, be mixed with assemblages derived from human or other predator activities ...

Impact of simulated nitrogen pollution on heathland microfauna, mesofauna and plants [PDF]

, 2012
Deposition of reactive nitrogen derived from intensive agriculture and industrial processes is a major threat to biodiversity and ecosystem services around the world; however our knowledge of the impacts of nitrogen is restricted to a very limited range ...

A framework linking silicon fertilisation, plant silicification and soil carbon cycling

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 861-870, May 2026.
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is vital for soil health, food security, and climate change mitigation. We reviewed how silicon (Si) fertilisers, commonly used to improve plant health, may also influence SOC dynamics. We developed a framework linking Si and SOC and discussed the possibility of Si‐mediated plant changes contributing to SOC sequestration.

IDENTIFICATION OF SOIL MESOFAUNA IN THE ARABICA COFFEE PLANT AREA: IN KALIBENDO PLANTATION, BANYUWANGI

, 2019
One of bio-indicator soil fertility is soil mesofauna. Soil mesofauna is soil organism that have an important role in distributing organic matter in the soil, improving soil physical properties, and increasing soil fertility.

Earthworms and soil mesofauna as early bioindicators for landfill restoration

, 2022
Landfill activities physically disrupt soil habitats, leading to the destruction of native soil biological communities and negatively impacting soil quality.

Necromass chemistry drives the functional diversity of the necrobiome, resulting in microbe–organic matter feedbacks

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1339-1351, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In temperate European forests, soil fungal communities, dominated by saprotrophic and ectomycorrhizal (ECM) species, represent almost 25% of soil organic carbon (C) in the soil.

Variation in Community-Level Trophic Niches of Soil Microarthropods With Conversion of Tropical Rainforest Into Plantation Systems as Indicated by Stable Isotopes (15N, 13C)

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Land-use change is threatening biodiversity worldwide and is predicted to increase in the next decades, especially in tropical regions. Most studies focused on the response of single or few species to land-use change, only few investigated the response ...
