Effects 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 کاملSoil invertebrates as bioindicators of urban soil quality.
This study aimed at relating the abundance and diversity of invertebrate communities of urban soils to chemical and physical soil characteristics and to identify the taxa most sensitive or tolerant to soil stressors. The invertebrate community of five urban soils in Naples, Italy, was sampled. To assess soil quality invertebrate community indices (Shannon, Simpson, Menhinick and Pielou indices)...
متن کاملSpatial analysis of riparian forest soil macrofauna and its relation to abiotic soil properties
Soil macrofauna play major roles in ecosystem functioning; however the ecological effects of macrofauna are influenced by their spatial distribution. Close relationships to soil properties are one major factor for determining spatial pattern of macrofauna. Information about macrofauna distribution pattern is scarce especially at regional scales. The limited numbers of studies available suggest ...
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 کاملA six-year grazing exclusion changed plant species diversity of a Stipa breviflora desert steppe community, northern China
Excluding grazers is one of most efficient ways to restore degraded grasslands in desert-steppe communities, but may negatively affect the recovery of plant species diversity. However, diversity differences between grazed and fenced grasslands in desert-steppe are poorly known. In a Stipa breviflora desert steppe community in Northern China, we established six plots to examine spatial patterns ...
