Severe drought and conventional farming affect detritivore feeding activity and its vertical distribution

Severe drought and conventional farming affect detritivore feeding activity and its vertical distribution

Soil invertebrates are key to decomposition, a central ecosystem process related to soil health. In many temperate areas climate change will decrease soil water content, which strongly modulates biological activity. However, data are lacking on how shifts in rainfall patterns affect soil biota and t...
