Impact of practices on the comprehensive fertility of soil under oil palm [PDF]
, 2015 The project had objectives to assess the integration of soil organic matter and soil biota (micro- and macrofauna) in comprehensive fertility of oil palm agroecosystems and to develop knowledge toward a comprehensive fertility diagnosis to manage organic

SOIL MACROFAUNA AT MACEIÓ MUNICIPAL PARK, ALAGOAS
, 2021 The objective of the present study was to evaluate the soil macrofauna in a Conservation Unit, in Maceió, Alagoas, in the conserved, transition environments and changed in Aug/2018 to Jun 2019. Provid traps were used and remained in the field for 96 hours. The organisms (> 2 mm in length) were identified at the order of the level.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 6, March 2026.ABSTRACT The restoration of biodiversity and functional tropical forests is critical to mitigating global biodiversity losses. Aboveground, increasing the connectivity of regenerating forest fragments facilitates the recolonization of tropical forest biodiversity.

Benthic trophic interactions in an Antarctic shallow water ecosystem affected by recent glacier retreat [PDF]
, 2015 The western Antarctic Peninsula is experiencing strong environmental changes as a consequence of ongoing regional warming. Glaciers in the area are retreating rapidly and increased sediment-laden meltwater runoff threatens the benthic biodiversity at ...

Multiple environmental controls explain global patterns in soil animal communities [PDF]
, 2020 Soil animals play important roles in ecosystem functioning and stability, but the environmental controls on their communities are not fully understood. In this study, we compiled a dataset of soil animal communities for which the abundance and body mass ...

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

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.We report an extensive investigation of prokaryotic communities from a methane cold‐seep area in the Western South Atlantic Ocean (Southern Brazil) employing a broad sample set, including three distinct geographic areas (A, C and E) across a depth gradient (up to 18 m below the seafloor) related to the sulfate–methane transition zone (SMTZ).

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science, 2018 Unsuitable soil management in agriculture is known to results in the deterioration of soil health and the decline of biodiversity. The experiment tested whether no-tillage with mulch (NT), could boost biological activity of soil macrofauna population in ...

Ecological niche packing and spatial organisation of the urban park macrofauna comminity
Agrology, 2019 The results of studying of the spatial organization of the soil macrofauna of the urbanozem of the grassland were processed by OMI- and RLQ-analysis methods. The biogeocenotical situation at the location of an experimental polygon was shown to be typical
