Effects of earthworms on bulk density: A meta‐analysis
Using meta-analysis, we quantified earthworm effects on bulk density and investigated the influence of driving factors (Lang, B. & Russell, D.J. Eur J Soil Sci. (2020) 71: 80– 83. https://doi.org/10.1111/ejss.12846). We compiled data from 22 articles, yielding 111 data points. In the supplementary data file, we give information on geographical location, climate, soils (soil type, soil texture, organic carbon, pH), experimental details (laboratory or field experiment, natural soil structure or repacked soil, mesocosm and sampling depth, experimental duration, land use, treatment, replication, initial bulk density), organisms (species or higher taxon, earthworm ecological group, mean individual mass, biomass, abundance), and results (bulk density and standard deviation for fauna and control treatments). Research domain: Other Research question: We estimated taxon-specific impacts on bulk density, whether general earthworm effects depended on ecological groups, earthworm body mass, abundance, soil texture, land use or experimental duration. Furthermore, we assessed whether earthworms are able to counteract soil compaction.
