Applied Soil Ecology (ASE)

Applied Soil Ecology is a peer‑reviewed scientific journal focusing on the ecological functions and processes of soil organisms and their connections to environmental sustainability and agricultural productivity. Established in 1994, the journal publishes original research articles, reviews, short communications, viewpoints, and letters that investigate soil biological processes, microbial and invertebrate ecology, nutrient cycling, soil fertility and structure, and the influence of anthropogenic factors on soil communities. The journal emphasizes interdisciplinary studies that integrate biological, ecological, and environmental sciences to advance understanding of soil ecosystems and their roles in terrestrial landscapes. Key topics include soil microbiology, root and rhizosphere ecology, soil biotechnology, ecotoxicology, nematology, and ecosystem modelling. Articles also explore practical applications such as biocontrol of pests, sustainable land management, soil health assessment, and responses of soil organisms to environmental change. With a monthly publication schedule, Applied Soil Ecology provides timely insights into pressing soil science challenges relevant to agriculture, forestry, environmental conservation, and global ecosystem service management. Its research outputs are widely cited and used by scientists, policymakers, and practitioners aiming to enhance soil function, resilience, and productivity under changing global conditions.
