Biodiversity is widely linked to human health, however, connections between human health
and soil biodiversity in urban environments remain poorly understood. Here, we stress that …

Urbanization is threatening terrestrial biodiversity and ecosystem functions. Nematodes, as
one of the most abundant animals on Earth, play diverse roles within soil food webs and …

The urbanization process, which began with the Industrial Revolution, has undergone a
considerable increase over the past few decades. Urbanization strongly affects ecological …

Urbanization negatively impacts aboveground biodiversity, such as bird and insect
communities. City parks can reduce these negative impacts by providing important habitat …

The underground community of soil organisms, known as soil biota, plays a critical role in
terrestrial ecosystems. Different ecosystems exhibit varied responses of soil organisms to …

Soil protists have vital roles as major microbiome predators in soil functioning and plant
performance. Protists are also suggested to be the most responsive microbial group to …

Understanding soil biodiversity response to land use change is crucial for predicting and
preserving soil ecological functions and health under anthropogenic influence. Yet, the …
