A review of earthworm impact on soil function and ecosystem services
Biodiversity is responsible for the provision of many ecosystem services; human well‐being
is based on these services, and consequently on biodiversity. In soil, earthworms represent …

Ecosystem characteristics and processes facilitating persistent macrobenthic biomass hotspots and associated benthivory in the Pacific Arctic
Abstract The northern Bering and Chukchi Seas are areas in the Pacific Arctic characterized
by high northward advection of Pacific Ocean water, with seasonal variability in sea ice …

A hump-backed trend in bacterial diversity with elevation on Mount Fuji, Japan
Little is known of how bacterial diversity in soils varies with elevation. One previous study
found a decline with elevation, whereas another found no trend. We chose Mount Fuji of …

Towards a pan-Arctic inventory of the species diversity of the macro-and megabenthic fauna of the Arctic shelf seas
Although knowledge of Arctic seas has increased tremendously in the past decade, benthic
diversity was investigated at regional scales only, and no attempt had been made to …

Beta diversity of demersal fish assemblages in the North-Eastern Pacific: interactions of latitude and depth
MJ Anderson, N Tolimieri, RB Millar - PloS one, 2013 - journals.plos.org
Knowledge of broad-scale global patterns in beta diversity (ie, variation or turnover in
identities of species) for marine systems is in its infancy. We analysed the beta diversity of …
