Do oribatid mites of tropical montane rainforests respond to nitrogen and phosphorus additions?
Abstract Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) depositions worldwide are increasing the risks of biodiversity and functionality loss in terrestrial ecosystems, particularly in tropical regions. However, the effects of increased nutrient inputs on soil biodiversity in tropical regions remain largely unknown.

Oribatid mites are a specious order of microarthropods within the subphylum Chelicerata, compromising about 11,000 described species. They are ubiquitously distributed across different microhabitats in all terrestrial ecosystems around the world and were

ABSTRACT Soil is a key compartment providing important ecosystem services for sustainable agriculture. Our study examined the effects of three inter‐row vegetation types on soil biological activity, mesofauna, and organic matter decomposition in 15 Mediterranean vineyards of South‐eastern France. The three vegetation types included inter‐rows sown with

Claws may be the most common biological attachment devices in animals but relatively few studies have examined the ecological and evolutionary significance of their morphology.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract How populations of ecosystem engineers are both driven by and drive biodiversity is poorly known, even less so in detrital subsystems. Deadwood plays a key role in maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem functions.
