Soil Microarthropod Abundance Following Old‐Field Litter Manipulation
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
A field experiment was set up in an old field in Michigan in spring and summer 1964, to test whether or not litter determines the abundance of soil microarthropods, and the physical factors in the environment were more favorable in the high—litter and dacron treatments than in the no-litter treatment.
