- Metagenomic survey of fungal communities in compost from dairy plant wastewater sludge and garden trimmingsPublication . Monjardino, Paulo; Azevedo, Ana Rita; Mendonça, Duarte; Pozsgai, Gabor; Borges, P.A.V.; Frias, Jorge; Toubarro, Duarte; Jiang, NingComposting converts organic residues into stable organic matter and nutrients under aerobic conditions, improving soil properties and microbiome balance, while mitigating environmental impacts. Although microbiomes of various compost types have been studied, information is still fragmented and often not tailored to specific raw material combinations. In particular, little is known about the fungal communities involved in composting dairy plant wastewater sludge mixed with garden trimmings. This data paper contributes to filling that gap by providing a comprehensive taxonomic inventory.
- Seasonal variation of dung-associated arthropods in cattle pastures of Terceira Island (Azores): a year-round, event-based datasetPublication . Wallon, Sophie; Leite, Abrão; Duenas-Rojas, Almudena; Cuesta, Eva; Coelho dos Santos, Ana Margarida; Lhoumeau, Sébastien Georges André; Borges, P.A.V.; Soares, AntónioDung-associated arthropods, particularly dung beetles (Scarabaeidae), together with rove beetles (Staphylinidae) and water scavenger beetles (Hydrophilidae), support key ecosystem functions in cattle-grazed landscapes, including dung removal, nutrient cycling, soil aeration and pest suppression. Their activity is strongly seasonal in temperate systems, driven by temperature and moisture and can be further reshaped by pasture management (e.g. changes in grazing regimes and dung availability). Oceanic islands add an important perspective because species pools are typically smaller and often dominated by introduced taxa, potentially altering phenology and dominance patterns across the year. However, year-round, standardised, event-based datasets for dung-associated arthropod assemblages remain scarce for oceanic islands, limiting robust comparisons amongst guilds, sites and management regimes and reducing our ability to benchmark seasonal windows of activity under climate variability and land-use change.
