I'm
looking for researchers who may have studied the impact of earthworms
on the
duff layer of northern forests, particularly in Michigan. The
Smithsonian has a recent article about earthworms as an exotic species that
affects life on the forest floor. It says their destruction of the duff
layer
has been documented in Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, New York and
Canada.
I'm developing a Michigan angle for a news story. Any worm experts
out there?
I can be contacted offlist at poulsondave@aol.com
