Soil Long Term Manipulation Experiment

A long-term soil manipulation experiment has been conducted as part of the McMurdo Dry Valleys Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project. The response of soil organisms (nematodes, rotifers and tardigrades) to the treatments is monitored by sampling soil on an annual basis.

作为麦克默多干谷长期生态研究（Long Term Ecological Research，LTER）项目的一部分，一项长期土壤操控实验已开展。研究人员通过年度土壤采样，监测土壤生物（线虫、轮虫及缓步动物）对各实验处理的响应。
