STUDIES ON THE BIODIVERSITY OR SOIL MICROARTHROPODS AND THEIR RESPONSES TO CRUDE OIL SPILLS
oil microarthropods influence vital ecosystem processes such as decomposition, microbial spore dispersal and nutrient mineralization Based on evidence that these micro species thrive best in moisture rich environment, this study was carried out in the rainy season. With all other physiochemical parameters relatively constant, responses of these soil microarthropods to three varying concentration of crude oil spills within the same environment was viewed.
