  abstract = {{C}onsidering in situ observations, chaos theory was taken as a basis to study the activity of anecic earthworms based on cast production from {S}eptember 2016 to {J}anuary 2018 in the {D}ong {C}ao watershed ({V}ietnam). {T}o study this activity, the global modeling technique was used to obtain deterministic models of ordinary differential equations directly from observational time series. {T}he obtained models show that the behavior of earthworms is chaotic; it is coupled to the dynamics of soil water content in a complex (integrative) way and can be interpreted as an habituation/sensitization process. {H}owever, this coupling is insufficient to explain the desynchronization of the cast production variations observed at different study sites. {T}he retroaction of earthworm activity on soil is required to explain the spatiotemporal discrepancies.},
