Earthworm abundance and functional group diversity regulate plant litter decay and soil organic carbon level: A global meta-analysis (2020, background): “…have shown that converting natural vegetation to pasture (Liu and Zou, 2002), cropland (Zou and Bashkin, 1998), and tree plantations (González et al., 1996; Zou, 1993) often alter earthworm abundance (Spurgeon et al., 2013) and functional diversity (Decaëns and Jiménez, 2002; Smith et al., 2008).”
Soil biodiversity and carbon cycling: a review and synthesis of studies examining diversity–function relationships (2011, background): “…associated with increased management intensity (van de Bund, 1970; Emmanuel et al., 1985; Freckman & Ettema, 1993; Bloemers et al., 1997; Decaëns & Jiménez, 2002; Eggleton et al., 2002; Adl et al., 2006), although neutral or positive responses have also been reported (reviewed by…”
