Abstract

Keywords

There was a mistake in Figures 4 and 5 as published. The images for the two figures were inadvertently interchanged in thepublished version. The corrected Figures 4 and 5 appear below.

Heatmap of effect sizes across management contrasts and indicators, showing only contrasts with large and statistically supported responses (|effect size| > 0.8; 95% confidence intervals not overlapping zero). In the conservation agriculture (CAGR) experiment, treatments were meadow (M), conservation tillage (R), and conventional plow-based tillage (P). In the forestry (FOR) experiment, treatments were control (C), gap cutting (G), and clear cutting (CC). Seasons are: pre-vegetation (pre) and post-vegetation (post). QBS-ar = standard Soil Biological Quality index based on arthropod eco-morphological scores; QBS-pres = number of QBS groups present; QBS-cpres = number of Collembola QBS categories present; QBS-cab = abundance-weighted Collembola QBS index. Life-form traits are: dispersal capacity (dispersal), disturbance resistance (disturbance), adaptation to the soil environment (soil env.).

Mean absolute effect sizes (± SD) of indicators in agricultural (CAGR) and forestry (FOR) management systems.
