Effects of single and repeated drought on soil microarthropods in a semi-arid ecosystem depend more on timing and duration than drought severity.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Soil moisture is one of the most important factors affecting soil biota. In arid and semi-arid ecosystems, soil mesofauna is adapted to temporary drought events, but, until now, we have had a limited understanding of the impacts of the different ...

Impacts of Haloxylon ammodendron Plantation Establishment on Arachnid and Soil Mesofauna Communities in a Desert–Oasis Ecotone

Diversity
Haloxylon ammodendron plantations constitute a dominant vegetation component of the desert–oasis ecotone in the arid and semi-arid regions of northwest China, playing a critical role in maintaining oasis stability and ecological security.

Influence of inorganic fertilizer and farmyard manure application rates, as determined by soil testing and crop response, on introduced native soil mesofauna populations in cabbage cultivation.

The present field experiment focused on the effects of applying inorganic fertilizers and farmyard manure, based on soil testing and crop response (STCR), on the introduced native soil mesofauna in the cabbage cropping system.

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

Revista 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 in pure and intercroped plantations of Eucalyptus grandis and Acacia mangium

, 2018
A mesofauna edáfica compreende pequenos invertebrados que vivem nos primeiros centímetros do solo e na serapilheira. Sabe-se que o plantio de leguminosas com espécies arbóreas não fixadoras de nitrogênio melhora a fertilidade do solo, porém não se ...

Collembola laterally move biochar particles.

PLoS 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
