Spatial and temporal distribution of earthworm patches in corn field, hayfield and forest systems of southwestern Quebec, Canada (2004, background): “Although the earthworm populations in tropical pastures exhibited stable spatial patterns during a 1-year period (Decaëns and Rossi, 2001), it is unclear whether these patterns persist for longer periods of time.”
Assembly rules within earthworm communities in North-Western France—A regional analysis (2008, background): “, 2006), spatial structuring of species assemblages (Decaëns and Rossi, 2001; Margerie et al., 2001; Jiménez et al., 2006) and non-linear relationships with regional to local species richness (Lavelle and Spain, 2001; Wardle, 2002).”
Effects of earthworms on soil organic matter and nutrient dynamics at a landscape scale over decades (2004, background): “However, in the Colombian savannah studied by Decaëns and Rossi (2001), the spatial distribution of earthworm populations did not show much change over a 3-year monitoring period, indicating that possible changes in population distribution patterns occur only at rather long sc ales of time.”
Habitat quality, conspecific density, and habitat pre-use affect the dispersal behaviour of two earthworm species, Aporrectodea icterica and Dendrobaena veneta, in a mesocosm experiment (2010, background): “…e emigration (both aspects of dispersal), interspecific interactions (competition versus ecological complementarity) and feedbacks between soil quality and earthworm engineering activity (Barot et al., 2007; Deca€ens and Rossi, 2001; Rossi et al., 1997; Jimenez et al., 2006; Deca€ens et al., 2009).”
