20.500.12556/DiRROS-11006 Cultural ecosystem services provided by the biodiversity of forest soils : a European review Soil is one of the most species-rich habitats and plays a crucial role in the functioning of terrestrial ecosystems. It is acknowledged that soils and their biota deliver many ecosystem services. However, up to now, cultural ecosystem services (CES) provided by soil biodiversity remained virtually unknown. Here we present a multilingual and multisubject literature review on cultural benefits provided by belowground biota in European forests. We found 226 papers mentioning impact of soil biota on the cultural aspects of human life. According to the reviewed literature, soil organisms contribute to all CES. Impact on CES, as reflected in literature, was highest for fungi and lowest for microorganisms and mesofauna. Cultural benefits provided by soil biota clearly prevailed in the total of the reviewed references, but there were also negative effects mentioned in six CES. The same organism groups or even individual species may have negative impacts within one CES and at the same time act as an ecosystem service provider for another CES. The CES were found to be supported at several levels of ecosystem service provision: from single species to two or more functional/taxonomical groups and in some cases morphological diversity acted as a surrogate for species diversity. Impact of soil biota on CES may be both direct % by providing the benefits (or dis-benefits) and indirect through the use of the products or services obtained from these benefits. The CES from soil biota interacted among themselves and with other ES, but more than often, they did not create bundles, because there exist temporal fluctuations in value of CES and a time lag between direct and indirect benefits. Strong regionality was noted for most of CES underpinned by soil biota: the same organism group or species may have strong impact on CES (positive, negative or both) in some regions while no, minor or opposite effects in others. Contrarily to the CES based on landscapes, in the CES provided by soil biota distance between the ecosystem and its CES benefiting area is shorter (CES based on landscapes are used less by local people and more by visitors, meanwhile CES based on species or organism groups are used mainly by local people). Our review revealed the existence of a considerable amount of spatially fragmented and semantically rich information highlighting cultural values provided by forest soil biota in Europe. soil biota forests soil ecosystem services Europe funkcije gozdov gozdna tla Evropa ekosistemske storitve gozdovi true false true Angleški jezik Ni določen Neznano 2020-02-20 11:50:00 2020-02-20 11:50:00 2022-08-16 03:37:24 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2019 0 0 Avtorica iz Slov.: Tanja Mrak; str. 19-30 Vol. 343 2019 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2021-02-21 630*114+630*9(4)(045)=111 0016-7061 10.1016/j.geoderma.2019.02.025 5319846 4619786 RAZ_Motiejunaite_Jurga_i2019.pdf RAZ_Motiejunaite_Jurga_i2019.pdf 1 7D7E4E249AD95B3546EB8FD6A10334D3 eeb612b08947fcef7fb3bc6a971a04d155338bdbec61b2bbf752d045480f8bff f8b0ad58-17b6-11ed-b6b8-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=20167 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0016706118320664?via%3Dihub 1 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=13152 Gozdarski inštitut Slovenije 0 0 0
