Global distribution of earthworm diversity

Helen Phillips, +145 more
- 25 Oct 2019 - 
TL;DR: It was found that local species richness and abundance typically peaked at higher latitudes, displaying patterns opposite to those observed in aboveground organisms, which suggest that climate change may have serious implications for earthworm communities and for the functions they provide.
Journal ArticleDOI

The proportion of soil-borne pathogens increases with warming at the global scale

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used data from a global field survey and a nine-year field experiment to show that warmer temperatures increase the relative abundance of soil-borne potential fungal plant pathogens, and provided a global atlas of these organisms along with future distribution projections under different climate change and land-use scenarios.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recognizing the quiet extinction of invertebrates

TL;DR: There is a greater focus on invertebrates and recommendations for future investigation are made about how to better understand their role in ecosystems.
