Microplastics Effects on Reproduction and Body Length of the Soil-Dwelling Nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (2020, background): “FIGURE 1 | The particle size distribution of (A) LDPE and (B) PLA/PBAT. The second ordinate shows the normalized frequency according to Filella (2015).”
The concept and future prospects of soil health (2020, neutral): “…has been largely enabled by significant advances in analytical capabilities since the 1980s, including global mapping of soil biodiversity 71,72 during the 2010s. the formulation of the united Nations’ sustainable Development Goals in 2015 provided a need to align soil functions with…”
The global soil community and its influence on biogeochemistry (2019, background): “Following this trend, the most abundant soil animals—nematodes—also show the highest abundances at high latitudes, where cold conditions have caused the accumulation of huge SOM stocks (42).”
