Soil Fauna Diversity - Function, Soil Degradation, Biological Indices, Soil Restoration
Soil represents one of the most important reservoirs of biodiversity. It reflects ecosystem metabolism since all the bio-geo-chemical processes of the different ecosystem components are combined within it; therefore soil quality fluctuations are considered to be a suitable criterion for evaluating the long-term sustainability of ecosystems.

To examine possible effects of global change on soil fauna abundance and diversity, two long-term field experiments in Norway spruce stands in Sweden were studied. Soil fauna (Oribatida, Mesostigmata, Collembola, predatory macroarthropods and Enchytraeidae) were sampled in plots experimentally simulating altered precipitation patterns and increased ...
