IMPACT OF EXTREMELY LOW FREQUENCY ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS ON SOIL ARTHROPODS ONGOING STUDIES AT THE WISCONSIN TEST FACILITY
Bernard Greenberg · 1973
Finding
As in 1971, no significant differences were found between each of the four groups of arthropods in the Main test and Control subplots. Statistically significant differences were observed among the microfauna in some of the other plots in 1972 that were absent in 1971. In some cases the density of a group was greater in the control plot, in other cases, the density was greater in the test plot. A general feature of all groups in test and control plots is the mid-summer population peak with return by mid-September to spring levels. The amplitude of this peak can vary from one year to the next, and both the chronicity and the amplitude appear to be independent of a Sanguine effect.
