Soil organisms, including earthworms, are a key component of terrestrial ecosystems. However, little is known about their diversity, distribution, and the threats affecting them. We compiled global dataset sampled earthworm communities from 6928 sites in 57 countries as basis for predicting patterns abundance, biomass. found that local species richness abundance typically peaked at higher latitudes, displaying opposite to those observed aboveground organisms. high dissimilarity across...
Abstract Earthworms are an important soil taxon as ecosystem engineers, providing a variety of crucial functions and services. Little is known about their diversity distribution at large spatial scales, despite the availability considerable amounts local-scale data. Earthworm data, obtained from primary literature or provided directly by authors, were collated with information on site locations, including coordinates, habitat cover, properties. Datasets required, minimum, to include...
The dendroflora of an urban arboretum, consisting 193 species, was ecologically characterized as bioforms, phytogeographical elements, and preferences for moisture, temperature, soil reaction. inventoried species are grouped in 111 genera 45 families. native non-native share 16 common most representative family both the is Rosaceae. monotypic families largely present (22.22% dendroflora, respectively 42.22% dendroflora). plant life-form spectrum dominated by megaphanerophytes (49%), followed...
The dendroflora of an urban arboretum (The Botanic Park Timișoara, Romania), consisting 193 species, was ecologically characterized as bioforms, phytogeographical elements, and preferences for moisture, temperature, soil pH. aim the research to determine whether native ecological requirements woody along with certain biological evolutionary traits them, such plant life-form family, could serve tools explaining understanding strategies employed by phytocoenoses acclimate adapt established...
The study intended to establish how the dynamics of earthworms (Oligochaeta: Lumbricidae) changes in soil (abundance, biomass), under conditions mineral fertilization with nitrogen and phosphorous four different doses, a 33-year experimental placement west Romania, wheat-soybean-maize-barley rotation. indices taken into were: pH, humus, total nitrogen, potassium. Statistical connections between studied factors were realized using dispersion analysis ANOVA SPSS Software (Statistical Package...
At the soil level, earthworms are key indicators of water-related processes which help soils to accept, retain, release and transmit water by influencing structure through their burrowing, casts, drilosphere. The repellency is an indicator stability both for natural earthworm casts (bioturbated soil). a complex property that should be approached at ecological functional level in categorization because this cast influences transport flow soil, such as those water, nutrients, pollutants, gas...
The management of plant wastes represents an issue to be solved as effi ciently possible.The main objectives this study were show that like decomposed fruits Solanum lycopersicum L. (tomato) can managed by introducing them the diet earthworm Eisenia fetida (Savigny 1826) (red wiggler worm), and determine relationship between earthworm's weight prolifi cacy several soil properties.The results three-month laboratory experiment revealed tomato represent adequate food for fetida: no mortality...
This paper aimed to establish the species diversity of earthworms (Oligochaeta: Lumbricidae) and chemical composition earthworm surface castings within an urban park from west side Romania (Timişoara City): Plevnei Park (45°44'58''N, 21°13'38''E).Eight lumbricid have been identified: Lumbricus terrestris, Aporrectodea rosea, longa, caliginosa, Allolobophora chlorotica, Dendrobaena veneta, octaedra, Dendrodrilus rubidus.Based on incidence, several ecological indicators calculated: constancy...
Abstract The historic center of Brăila begins with “Trajan Square”, a special cultural area monuments that distinguish it among national values: the Church “Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel” “Maria Filotti” Theater. These heritage buildings in cities preserve memory original structure.
Due to the earthworms' implications in nutrient cycles through their burrowing and casting activity, earthworms are worth considering when urban biogeochemical analysed. Several chemical parameters relationships were analysed earthworm casts of two parks, namely pH, total organic carbon (TOC), nitrogen (Nt), plant available phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium water soluble (Ca). It was statistically significantly found that TOC, Nt, P K reciprocally determined casts: 74.4% pH variability...
