Carbon flow in belowground food webs assessed by isotope tracers
(2016-02-04)Soil food webs are complex networks that consist of several trophic levels and taxonomic groups including soil microorganisms, protists, nematodes, annelids and soil arthropods. Interactions between and within trophic ... -
Effects of temperature and body mass on soil communities
(2013-01-11)The Earth is undergoing a climate change with predicted increases in temperature by up to 6° C until 2100. How this warming affects soil food webs is of fundamental interest for mankind as it may influence global food ... -
Environmental heterogeneity–species richness relationships from a global perspective
(2014-12-11)Spatial environmental heterogeneity (EH) is regarded as one of the most important drivers of species richness gradients worldwide. Its association with increased available niche space, provision of refuges, and opportunities ... -
Phylogeography in sexual and parthenogenetic European oribatida
(2011-01-20)Oribatid mites (Acari, Oribatida) are a species rich group which may form the oldest group of Chelicerata, as indicated by fossils from Devonian sediment (~380 million years) and molecular ... -
Soil animal food webs in temperate forests: effects of forest management on trophic structure as indicated by molecular gut content, stable isotope and fatty acid analyses
(2015-01-19)The soil system comprises a high diversity of coexisting species interacting in close association. Generally, soil animals are assumed to be trophic generalists feeding on resources of even different trophic levels. The ... -
The soil food web of temperate deciduous forests: litter and root resources as driving factors, and soil fauna effects on ecosystem processes
(2016-12-16)Above- and belowground communities have been investigated independently for long, but there is increasing evidence that both are intimately linked and depend on each other. Plants provide energy and nutrients for the ... -
Towards a unified allometric and stoichiometric perspective in ecology
(2015-09-09)Ecosystem functioning is maintained by the interplay of a multitude of species. However, in a time of global change there are high rates of species extinctions which can drastically reduce the functionality of natural ...
