Standardized Protocols for Soil Fauna Extraction and a Call for Cross‐Lab Implementation
We present harmonized methodologies, assembled by an international group of experts, for extracting soil‐ and litter‐inhabiting nematodes, enchytraeids, microarthropods, and larger invertebrates. The protocols are illustrated with images and videos, and include advice for overcoming the most frequent issues (’expert tips’) for increasing extraction ...

Development of Collembolans after coversion towards organic farming [PDF]
In Northern Germany, a diverse and complex experimental farm of the Federal Agricultural Research Centre (FAL) was set-up in 2001 covering all main aspects of organic farming. Previously, the 600 ha farm had been managed conventionally.

Scale Model of a Soil Aggregate and Associated Organisms: A Teaching Tool for Soil Ecology [PDF]
Soil is a complex habitat for diverse biota. A significant challenge in teaching soil ecology is our inability to observe organisms as they live and interact in the soil.

The relative influence of environmental conditions, biotic interactions and dispersal limitation for community structure and diversity patterns is a reoccurring theme in community ecology. In studies of soil fauna communities, small-scale horizontal and vertical variations in environmental variables and biotic interactions have often been disregarded ...

The effects of transgenic soybeans and associated herbicide treatment upon soil-surface mesofauna [PDF]
While the percentage of transgenic soybean varieties being planted in Iowa has increased greatly, little has been done to evaluate the ecological consequences of these new technologies.

Effect of woodstack structure on invertebrate abundance and diversity [PDF]
Reduced quantities of dead wood in managed forests have resulted in a reduction in the abundance and diversity of saproxylic invertebrates to the extent that many are now considered red list species.
