− | + | MACROFAUNA database is the result of 20 years of collaborative work gathering a large number of scientific research teams around the world. Its main objectives are: | |
+ | |||
+ | * to evaluate the soil macrofauna biodiversity at different geographic scales, from local to regional. | ||
+ | * to investigate the influence of land use, biotope perturbations and environmental factors on the soil macrofauna. | ||
+ | * to assess the influence of soil macrofauna community modifications on soil properties. | ||
+ | * to research bioindicators associated with specific environmental parameters or soil perturbations. | ||

Edaphobase The soil-zoological information system EDAPHOBASE is a taxonomic-ecological database system, which combines existing taxonomical primary data on soil organisms from collections, scientific literature and reports etc. originating from many research institutes and persons involved in soil zoology. This data is linked at the species level to ecological background information of the species’ sites of occurrence (i.e. geography, soils, habitat type, climate). The data is available to the general public via a web application containing a comprehensive query system, which allows the analysis and evaluation of the data for complex ecological questions of soil-zoological research and monitoring. In general, EDAPHOBASE makes this data comprehensively available for soil-zoological biodiversity research – a unique undertaking within Germany! The Information system is part of the existing GBIF data structure. | |

BETSI The IRD is a French research organisation, original and unique on the European development research scene. Emphasizing interdisciplinarity, the IRD has focused its research for over 65 years on the relationship between man and its environment, in Africa, Mediterranean, Latin America, Asia and the French tropical overseas territories. Its research, training and innovation activities are intended to contribute to the social, economic and cultural development of southern countries. | |
