Soil resources vs. physicochemical soil properties as drivers of abundance and diversity of low Arctic soil mesofauna communities
Soil mesofauna play pertinent roles in soil processes. For example, microarthropods strongly influence rates of microbial decomposition. The relationship between mesofauna and their environment are understudied in low Arctic ecosystems compared to other regions. A more detailed grasp of these soil assemblages is necessary for understanding the current functioning of these ecosystems. We characterized the soil mesofauna community across different low Arctic habitats to determine which soil properties commonly correlated with soil fauna would best explain their distribution, abundance, and diversity. Samples were taken near five different lakes in northern Finland, in both alpine meadows and sub-alpine birch forests, across a span of available soil habitats (measured by pH, salinity, organic and nitrogen content, soil moisture). Total abundance of the mesofauna community was influenced by a combination of soil factors, but most individual taxa, as well as measures of diversity were best explained by models of one or two influential soil parameters. Poduromorpha springtails and Oribatid mites were best modeled by measures of resource availability, although only Oribatids were significantly, positively related to these resources. All mites and Entomobryomorphid springtails were positively influenced by physicochemical soil moisture and/or salinity. Salinity, in particular, had a strong influence on overall mesofauna community composition. Our results provide further insight into soil fauna assemblages in Northern Finland and further, more extensive research would contribute to a more comprehensive foundation. This will allow for better monitoring of community changes and responses in the face of climate change in the low Arctic.
期刊介绍:
Polar Biology publishes Original Papers, Reviews, and Short Notes and is the focal point for biologists working in polar regions. It is also of interest to scientists working in biology in general, ecology and physiology, as well as in oceanography and climatology related to polar life. Polar Biology presents results of studies in plants, animals, and micro-organisms of marine, limnic and terrestrial habitats in polar and subpolar regions of both hemispheres.
