The soil microbiome regulates vital ecosystem functions ranging from primary production to
soil carbon sequestration. Yet, we have only begun to understand the factors regulating the …

Climate change can have a plethora of effects on organisms above and below the ground in
terrestrial ecosystems. Given the tremendous biodiversity in the soil and the many …

Biodiversity, both aboveground and belowground, is negatively affected by global changes
such as drought or warming. This loss of biodiversity impacts Earth's ecosystems, as there is …

Earthworms are known to reclaim soil contamination and maintain soil health. In the present
study, the concentration of DTPA extractable heavy metals, Cd, Cu, Cr, Pb, and Zn in …

Microplastics (MPs) are recognized as emergent pollutants and have become a significant
environmental concern, especially when combined with other contaminants. In this study …

The abundance of earthworms in the soil can be affected by several factors including soil
pH, moisture, temperature, aeration, carbon dioxide, soil type, organic matter, food supply …

Anthropogenic climate change can give rise to trophic mismatches in food webs owing to
differential responses of consumer and resource organisms. However, we know little about …

Earthworms are important soil organisms that play critical roles in ecosystem material
cycling and energy flows. Discovering and predicting the distribution of earthworm habitats …

The impacts of climate change on biodiversity can be modulated by other changing
environmental conditions (eg induced by land‐use change). The potential interactive effects …

The impact of climate change over the coming decades will increase the likelihood of many
species undergoing genetic alterations or even becoming extinct. Vegetation and …
