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

Mixed leaf litter effects on decomposition rates and soil microarthropod communities in an oak-pine stand in Japan

TL;DR: Faunal abundance in litter bags was higher in mixed-species litter than in those with single- species litter, and species richness of oribatid mites was also higher in the three-species mixed litter, which seemed to be responsible for the more abundant soil microarthropod community.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of leaf litter mixtures on the decomposition of Quercus serrata and Pinus densiflora using field and laboratory microcosm methods

TL;DR: Results indicate that combined weight losses were affected by both litter mixtures and incubation chambers, suggesting a positive enhancement effect of mixed litter in decomposition studies using mixed litter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rainfall manipulation effects on litter decomposition and the microbial biomass of the forest floor

TL;DR: In this article, simple structures aimed at regulating the amount of rain water dropping into the forest floor were installed to determine the impact of rainfall on leaf litter mass loss, respiration rates, microbial biomass C (C mic ) and metabolic quotient ( q CO 2 ).
