Literature estimates of mounding rates and bioturbation by ants.

Authors did not always report the density of nests over larger areas, thus some extrapolations may be inaccurate. Rates are reported here as kg/m2/yr. Data in tons/ha/yr have been converted to kg/m2/yr. Some data (see bottom of table) were taken from review rather than the original source. * Data from Mitchell 1988; Humphreys and Mitchell 1983; Salem and Hole 1968; all as reported in [22].
