Indicadores de qualidade de solos de área de mineração e metalurgia de chumbo: II - Mesofauna e plantas Soil quality indicators in lead mining and metalurgy area: II - Mesofauna and plants

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2010
A influência do manejo ou a adição de contaminante ao solo, normalmente, induz uma resposta mais rápida sobre a mesofauna do solo do que em outros atributos pedológicos, o que torna esses organismos bons indicadores de qualidade ambiental.

Soil mesofauna under different soil tillage systems and nutrient sources

open access: yes, 2021
The agricultural practices affect the soil fauna which has an important role in the soil such asincorporation and decay of crop residues and to assist the action of microorganisms. The objective of this study was to analyze the influence of soil tillage systems and nutrient sources on soil mesofauna abundance and diversity.

Collembola laterally move biochar particles.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Biochar is being discussed as a soil amendment to improve soil fertility and mitigate climate change. While biochar interactions with soil microbial biota have been frequently studied, interactions with soil mesofauna are understudied. We here present an
