Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship among the species richness of different taxa.
TL;DR: The potential of a correlative approach to species richness is strongly diminished by the overall low level of variance explanation and some suggestions for future research are inclusion of several taxa in models aiming at regional richness predictions, improvement of knowledge on species correlations in human dominated systems, and a better understanding of mechanisms underlying richness correlations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Successional changes of Collembola and soil microbiota during forest rotation
TL;DR: This study provides evidence for substantial ecosystem-level implications of changes in the soil food web during forest rotation and correlations between bacterial parameters and Collembola point to the overarching impact of differences in the composition of the microbial community on microarthropods.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of emissions from a large metal works near Tula in the Russian Federation, measured concentrations of iron, manganese, zinc, copper, nickel, lead and cadmium in soil, litter and invertebrates at four sampling sites at different distances from the factory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term succession of oribatid mites after conversion of croplands to grasslands
TL;DR: General Regression Model (GRM) analysis revealed an increasing impact of external factors on the oribatid community during grassland succession, and a shift in the major driving forces determining o ribatid abundance from soil conditions to vegetation conditions and then to a combined effect of both soil and vegetation conditions.
