Candidate: Fabio Vicentini Doctoral thesis abstract: Soil invertebrates in post-mining sites Post-mining sites present a valuable opportunity to investigate the interactions between the soil and the organisms it sustains, as the motions of materials following from the anthropological disturbance, allow for the coexistence of various processes of recovery within close range studies. From the previously published literature emerges that reclamation techniques have a substantial effect on the soil and fauna development: in particular, leaving in heaps of deposited material to incur in spontaneous vegetation, has shown to have a positive effect on the soil fauna. Nevertheless, the numerous variables that lead to a stable presence of a healthy fauna community in recovering soil, remain to be adequately explored. For this purpose, the manuscripts presented in this thesis have focused on the effects induced by the levelling of the post-mining sites, which employs heavy machinery to remove the heaps, and the heterogeneous habitats that on them host; and the outcomes of soil transplantations, which consist in collecting undamaged soil from areas nearby the mining pit, to be applied in the recovering soil as a valid measure to ameliorate the establishing of a valuable fauna community. The first manuscript reports how...
