Invertebrates play significant, but largely ignored, roles in the delivery of ecosystem services
by soils at plot and landscape scales. They participate actively in the interactions that …

Here we introduce the Soil BON Foodweb Team, a cross-continental collaborative network
that aims to monitor soil animal communities and food webs using consistent methodology …

The paper describes rich, a new R package to perform species richness estimation and
comparison. Species richness is the simplest surrogate for the more complex concept of …

Soil quality or health is a fuzzy concept that has been vigorously criticized due to the
extreme variability of soil and the difficulty of linking soil indicators to soil functions and …

We developed a synthetic index of biological soil quality (IBQS) based on soil macro-
invertebrate community patterns to assess soil quality. In 22 sites representing the diversity …

Edaphic macrofauna must be better studied if we want to take advantage of their full
potential for the restoration of tropical ecosystems. We investigated changes in edaphic …

Smallholder agroforestry systems often incorporate features that are associated with
abundant, diverse soil macrofauna populations. This study sampled soil macrofauna …

Very little is known about the changes of ground beetle assemblages in the last few decades
in the Alps, and different responses to climate change of animal populations living above …

Монография посвящена пространственному распределению почвенных животных на
разных уровнях разрешения: исследуемой точки, биогеоценоза, ландшафта, региона …

The conservation of biodiversity has gained prominence in ecological research for the last
decades. Conservation actions require a measure of biodiversity such as species richness …
