Fire and herbivory shape soil arthropod communities through habitat heterogeneity and nutrient cycling in savannas
Soil arthropods are important components of savannas, contributing to nutrient cycling and thus primary productivity. To investigate how fire and mammalian herbivores influence arthropod food webs, we used two long term herbivore exclosures (ca. 20 y) and burning trials (ca. 5-y return) located alon...
