Pedobiologia publishes peer reviewed articles describing original work in the field of soil ecology| which includes the study of soil organisms and their interactions with factors in their biotic and abiotic environments. Analysis of biological structures| interactions| functions| and processes in soil is fundamental for understanding the dynamical nature of terrestrial ecosystems| a prerequisite for appropriate soil management. The scope of this journal consists of fundamental and applied aspects of soil ecology; key focal points include interactions among organisms in soil| organismal controls on soil processes| causes and consequences of soil biodiversity| and aboveground-belowground interactions. We publish: original research that tests clearly defined hypotheses addressing topics of current interest in soil ecology (including studies demonstrating nonsignificant effects); descriptions of novel methodological approaches| or evaluations of current approaches| that address a clear need in soil ecology research; innovative syntheses of the soil ecology literature| including metaanalyses| topical in depth reviews and short opinion/perspective pieces| and descriptions of original conceptual frameworks; and short notes reporting novel observations of ecological significance.
