Earthworm Burrows in Glacial Till Soils: Spatial Distribution and Macropore Function
• Deep vertical burrows created by anecic earthworms are laterally connected to root-derived macropores, forming integrated preferential flow networks.
• Many deep burrows are of historical origin, persisting for centuries while remaining hydrologically functional.
• Reduced tillage increases surface-connected burrows, enhancing infiltration but also raising the potential for rapid pesticide leaching to depth.
