In the Colombian Amazon, the provision of soil-based ecosystem services is threatened mainly by loss of plant cover. Methodologies are required that allow for a holistic assessment of soil degradation or restoration and associated changes in the provision of ecosystem services. With this objective, we measured macroinvertebrate communities, soil macroaggregates, soil hydrological properties and chemical soil properties in areas of the deforested Colombian Amazon. The sampled areas are located two landscape units (undulating footslopes and hillsides) and four different land use types (Mature Forest, Forest Implementations, Sylvopastoral Systems and Traditional pastures). Parameters were assembled into soil hydrological, chemical soil properties, macroaggregates and macroinvertebrate communities sub indicators that were subsequently grouped into a General Indicator of Soil Quality (GISQ). Values indicated differences in the provision of soil-based ecosystem services among landscape units and land use types. We confirmed and quantified the negative effects of deforestation and land-use intensification, increasing from Forest Implementation to Sylvopastoral Systems and Traditional Pastures. Soil macroinvertebrate communities and physical properties as proxies for soil biodiversity and soil hydrological functions were the most negatively affected.

在哥伦比亚的亚马逊地区，基于土壤的生态系统服务的提供主要受到植物覆盖率下降的威胁。需要能够对土壤退化或恢复以及生态系统服务提供中的相关变化进行整体​​评估的方法。为此，我们测量了哥伦比亚森林砍伐亚马逊地区的大型无脊椎动物群落，土壤大型聚集体，土壤水文特性和化学土壤特性。采样区域位于两个景观单元（起伏的山坡和山坡）和四个不同的土地利用类型（成熟的森林，森林设施，林牧系统和传统牧场）。参数组合成土壤水文，化学土壤特性，宏观集合体和无脊椎动物群落子指标，这些子指标随后被分组为土壤质量总指标（GISQ）。值表明景观单位和土地利用类型之间在提供土壤生态系统服务方面存在差异。我们确认并量化了森林砍伐和土地利用集约化的负面影响，从森林实施到森林牧民系统和传统牧场，这种负面影响不断增加。作为土壤生物多样性和土壤水文功能代理的土壤无脊椎动物群落和物理特性受到的负面影响最大。我们确认并量化了森林砍伐和土地利用集约化的负面影响，从森林实施到森林牧民系统和传统牧场，这种负面影响不断增加。作为土壤生物多样性和土壤水文功能代理的土壤无脊椎动物群落和物理特性受到的负面影响最大。我们确认并量化了森林砍伐和土地利用集约化的负面影响，从森林实施到森林牧民系统和传统牧场，这种负面影响不断增加。作为土壤生物多样性和土壤水文功能代理的土壤无脊椎动物群落和物理特性受到的负面影响最大。
