The Saline and Sodic Soils Map shows the area distribution of saline, sodic and potentially salt affected areas within the Union. The accuracy of input input data only allows the designation of salt affected areas with a limited level of reliability (e.g. < 50 or > 50% of the area); therefore the results represented in the map should ...

Our study has proposed the first topsoil OC content map of which is based on direct harmonized measurements stored in a database, produced using DSM techniques. The model shows a fairly good accuracy for most of the EU (R2 =0.28), except for Scandinavia (R2 =0.09) where organic topsoils predominate.

1. Introduction. SOC levels directly affect environmental processes such as erosion, fertility and greenhouse gas fluxes. At a global scale, SOC data are of relevance since “soils” is among the mandatory carbon pools to be reported on under the “Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry” (LULUCF) activities listed in articles 3.3 and 3.4 of the Kyoto Protocol (UNFCCC, 1998).

Background is one of our most important resources and fulfills many ecological functions such as storage and filtration of water and nutrients, transformation of chemical compounds and nutrients, biomass production, and carbon storage. Such functions support ecosystem services provided by soils, which need to be protected to protect fertility. However, soils often ...

Abstract. In the context of the first phase of the Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment in the domain (EURO-CORDEX) flagship plot study on Land Use and Climate Across Scales (LUCAS), we investigate the biophysical impact of afforestation on the seasonal cycle of temperature over the continent with an ensemble of 10 regional climate models.
