“The impacts of forest disturbances on soil and litter invertebrates“
Phil Martin
Position:
Postdoctoral Researcher
Abstract:
How do disturbances to forests like fires, droughts, storms, and pest outbreaks impact soil and litter invertebrates? We know lots about how these perturbations affect large, cute biodiversity, but this isn’t true for litter and soil dwelling invertebrates – despite their importance for soil functioning. In this talk I’ll discuss three projects I’ve been working on to address this knowledge gap: (i) a large systematic map which identified serious geographic and taxonomic biases in field studies; (ii) a meta-analysis on the impacts of precipitation changes; (iii) an innovative umbrella review which combines results from multiple meta-analyses
