Surface-active Macrofauna Associated with Wrack Deposits
Wrack deposits provide potential food, shelter and breeding sites for marine and terrestrial invertebrate macrofauna and can support communities with high diversity, abundance and biomass. Macrofauna may also play important roles in the fragmentation, decomposition and incorporation of wrack into the beach and nearshore ecosystem. In this chapter I sampled surface-active macrofauna using pitfal...
متن کاملSystems on Soil Carbon Storage and Macrofauna in Central Brazil
Soils represent a large carbon pool, approximately 1500 Gt, equivalent to almost three times the quantity stored in terrestrial biomass and twice the amount stored in the atmosphere. Any modifi cation of land-use or land management can induce variations in soil carbon stocks, even in agricultural systems that are perceived to be in a steady state. Th ese modifi cations also alter soil macrofaun...
متن کاملEffects of Alpine land‐use changes: Soil macrofauna community revisited
Although soil invertebrates play a decisive role in maintaining ecosystem functioning, little is known about their structural composition in Alpine soils and how their abundances are affected by the currently ongoing land-use changes. In this study, we re-assessed the soil macrofauna community structure of managed and abandoned Alpine pastureland, which has already been evaluated 14 years earli...
متن کاملAlleviating Soil Acidity with Crop Residues
Soil acidity, which is characterized by mainly aluminum (Al) toxicity and often calcium (Ca) deficiency, is a serious constraint for crop production in many regions of the world. Soil acidity is traditionally corrected by applications of lime (CaCO3 or Ca(OH)2), which raise soil pH, precipitate Al and provide Ca. However, high rates of lime cannot be afforded because of its high cost relative t...
متن کاملVariation in Soil Microbial Community Structure Associated with Different Legume Species Is Greater than that Associated with Different Grass Species
Plants are the essential factors shaping soil microbial community (SMC) structure. When most studies focus on the difference in the SMC structure associated different plant species, the variation in the SMC structure associated with phylogenetically close species is less investigated. Legume (Fabaceae) and grass (Poaceae) are functionally important plant groups; however, their influences on the...
