Edaphostat: interactive ecological analysis of soil organism occurrences and preferences from the Edaphobase data warehouse.

The Edaphostat web application allows interactive and dynamic analyses of soil organism data stored in the Edaphobase data warehouse. It is part of the Edaphobase web application and can be accessed by any modern browser. The tool combines data from different sources (publications, field studies and museum collections) and allows species preferences along various environmental gradients (i.e. C/N ratio and pH) and classification systems (habitat type and soil type) to be analyzed.
