The belowground compartment of terrestrial ecosystems drives nutrient cycling, the
decomposition and stabilisation of organic matter, and supports aboveground life …

Energy dynamics within ecological communities are important in delivering ecosystem
services. However, it remains elusive how the energy fluxes within soil food webs respond to …

Soil multifunctionality is the consequence of biotic interactions that drive decomposition,
nutrient cycling and net primary production. Energy flux describes the energy consumed and …

Here we introduce the Soil BON Foodweb Team, a cross-continental collaborative network
that aims to monitor soil animal communities and food webs using consistent methodology …

Agricultural expansion is among the main threats to biodiversity and functions of tropical
ecosystems. It has been shown that conversion of rainforest into plantations erodes …

Untangling the relationship between network complexity and ecological stability under
climate change is an arduous challenge for theoretical and empirical ecology. Even more …

Energy flux in food webs is a fundamental feature of ecosystems and an important link
between biodiversity and ecosystem function. Studies of energy flow through the soil …

Soil ecosystems are both particularly important to humans and vulnerable to human‐made
global change. Here, we identify some key aspects of soil community and ecosystem …

Terrestrial animal biodiversity is increasingly being lost because of land-use change,.
However, functional and energetic consequences aboveground and belowground and …

Ecological communities are constantly exposed to multiple natural and anthropogenic
disturbances. Multivariate composition (if recovered) has been found to need significantly …
