Worm Research Studies around the Nation
Effects on Forest Floor, Soils, and Nutrients
Redistribution and Retention of Soil Carbon and Nitrogen in Northern Temperate Forests
This study analyzed soil organic matter distribution and
soil solution chemistry in plots with and without earthworms at two sugar maple (Acer saccharum)– dominated forests in New York State, USA, with
differing land-use histories to assess the influence of
earthworm invasion on the retention or loss of soil
carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) in northern temperate
forests. Location: New York Lead Researcher: Bohlen et al , Archbold Biological Station Full text - pdf file
