Why is the influence of soil macrofauna on soil structure only considered by soil ecologists?

open access: yesSoil and Tillage Research, 2015
These last twenty years have seen the development of an abundant literature on the influence of soil macrofauna on soil structure. Amongst these organisms, earthworms, termites and ants are considered to play a key role in regulating the physical, chemical and microbiological properties of soils.

Bioturbating bivalves show potential to bioremediate degraded soft sediments by restoring ecosystem function

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Natural recovery of disturbed marine ecosystems can take years, mainly because long‐lived, functionally important species are lost. To regain ecosystem services, the focus of estuarine restoration is shifting from biodiversity metrics to functional restoration.

Determinants of Soil Microarthropod Community Biodiversity in the Svalbard High Arctic: Locality or Vegetation Community?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Arctic ecosystems like Svalbard are rapidly changing, yet soil microarthropods remain difficult to monitor due to limited baseline data and demanding field and identification work. Using 172 soil samples from 33 localities, we tested whether vegetation maps could serve as proxies for soil microarthropod communities.

Earthworms, ants and other arthropods as soil health indicators in traditional and no-fire agro-ecosystems from Eastern brazilian Amazonia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Deforestation of the Amazonian rainforest and conversion to agriculture with the use of fire creates a mosaic of occupied lands and secondary forests. Considering the fundamental role of soil macrofauna and the lack of information about its resilience to

SOM management in the tropics: Why feeding the soil macrofauna?

open access: yesNutrient Cycling in Agroecosystems, 2001
This paper synthesises information on the food requirements of soil macroinvertebrates and some of their effects on soil organic matter dynamics. Some clues to techniques that would optimise their activities through organic matter management are suggested.

Anisotropic community turn‐over at habitat edges informs on assembly drivers: simulation and empirical test on soil macrofauna

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Biodiversity dynamics in heterogeneous landscapes is the result of a complex interplay between movement processes of organisms within and between habitat patches, and niche filtering processes due to spatially varying environmental conditions. Disentangling the relative influences of these different processes on community assembly and dynamics is a ...
