dc.descriptionThis poster illustrates how soil pollution affects the health of soil ecosystems and its biodiversity. It shows how mobile soil fauna often avoid heavily polluted soils, reducing the rate of litter decomposition in them. This leads to the accumulation of undecomposed litter and the reduction of burrows in the first few centimetres of the soil profile, precisely where contaminants tend to stay, thus affecting plant health and growth.
