Heavy metal concentrations in earthworms following long-term nutrient enrichment

The study investigates changes in the annual accumulation of heavy metals in earthworms collected from old-field communities during ecosystem restoration in order to examine the mechanisms of ecosystem recovery and the feasibility of restoration following long-term enrichment.
