Diversité de la macrofaune des sols cultivés sur les Hautes-Terres de Madagascar
Biotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement, 2016 Crop management and soil macrofauna diversity in the Highlands of Madagascar. Description of the subject. This article deals with soil macrofauna as a key component of soil biological functioning. Objectives. This original study, performed in 2015, aimed

Replanting of first‐cycle oil palm results in a second wave of biodiversity loss
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Conversion of forest to oil palm plantations results in a significant loss of biodiversity. Despite this, first‐cycle oil palm plantations can sustain relatively high biodiversity compared to other crops.

Soil nutrients and microbial community resistant to patch‐burn grazing in southwestern North Dakota
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Patch‐burn grazing uses the interactive effects of prescribed fire and herbivory to increase heterogeneity in aboveground ecosystem properties. Understanding how management that targets aboveground heterogeneity translates to soil properties and processes provides an important whole‐system context for practitioners.

Recovery of soil macrofauna after wildfires in boreal forests
, 2013 Forest wildfires can severely affect the soil faunal community. We hypothesised that the recovery of soil animals after a fire would occur through (1) immigration from the unburnt forest into the burnt area and (2) survival in less-burnt patches or deep ...

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2560-2574, August 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Home‐Field Advantage (HFA) theory—positing that litter decomposes faster at its site of origin—allows us to disentangle the respective influences of litter quality, soil biota composition, and microclimate on shifts in litter decomposition following land use conversion.

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 ...
