Abstract

When 1, 2, 4 and 8 times the average annual litterfall was placed around trees in a shade tree evaluation plantation, earthworm populations increased with increasing application rate after 5 months. After 17 and 60 months there was no significant effect on earthworm populations. In situ recycling of leaf litter can increase earthworm populations in urban soils.
