TL;DR: It was found that local species richness and abundance typically peaked at higher latitudes, displaying patterns opposite to those observed in aboveground organisms, which suggest that climate change may have serious implications for earthworm communities and for the functions they provide.
The use of microorganisms in ecological soil classification and assessment concepts
TL;DR: A wide range of possible microbial indicators are presented, some of them standardized; each provides slightly different information on soil quality.

TL;DR: The EcoFINDERS (FP7) project sampled 76 sites across 11 European countries, covering five biogeographical zones (Alpine, Atlantic, Boreal, Continental and Mediterranean) and three land-uses (arable, grass, forestry) to assess the range in biodiversity and ecosystem function across the sites, fourteen biological methods were applied as proxy indicators for these functions.

Soil biological quality after 36 years of ley-arable cropping, permanent grassland and permanent arable cropping

TL;DR: The results suggest that many functions of soil biota that are well established in permanent grassland, are restored in a ley-arable crop rotation, however, due to a reduction in certain species, specific functions of these soilBiota could be reduced or lost.

Monitoring soil bacteria with community-level physiological profiles using Biolog™ ECO-plates in the Netherlands and Europe

TL;DR: In this paper, community-level physiological profiles (CLPP) were analyzed with ECO-plates in Dutch and European soil samples and the results showed consistent patterns in CLPP and soil habitat characteristics, as brought about by environmental disturbances, land management and soil texture.
