TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the current state of knowledge of soil fauna as it relates to and is influenced by various disturbances, focusing on three main natural and anthropogenic disturbance types: 1) natural disturbances, including damage from wind and flooding; 2) invasive species, including above and belowground flora and fauna; and 3) climate change impacts on the atmosphere and temperature.

TL;DR: This paper used the IUCN's assessment of the complete single island endemic (SIE) vascular plant flora of Kauai, Hawaii, to assess the proportion and drivers of decline of threatened plants in an oceanic island setting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant-soil feedbacks differ in intact and tornado-damaged areas of the southern Appalachian mountains, USA
TL;DR: It is found that PSF may be changed by severe wind disturbance, but the nature of the changes depends upon species identity, and multiple soil mechanisms aside from mycorrhizal colonization likely drive disturbance-related PSF changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
