Soil surface-active fauna in degraded and restored lands of Northeast Brazil.

Soil surface-active fauna in degraded and restored lands of Northeast Brazil.

Land degradation reducing vegetation cover may affect the soil surface-active fauna because both aboveground and belowground invertebrates depend on complex plant communities. In this study, we evaluated the effect of land degradation and restoration on soil fauna in northeast Brazil. Sites differed in degradation status: native vegetation, moderately degraded land, highly degraded land, and land under restoration for 4 years.
