Here, we conducted a systematic analysis of metal contamination urban soils based on 174 peer-reviewed studies spanning 143 urban sites and 29 countries. The results show that reporting of data on urban metals is highly heterogeneous across the study area. Over half of all studies are from only five countries (Italy ...

Abstract. In the 2022 summer, western–central and several other regions in the northern extratropics experienced substantial moisture deficits in the wake of precipitation shortages and elevated temperatures. Much of has not witnessed a more severe drought since at least the mid-20th century, raising the question whether this is a manifestation of our warming climate ...

Introduction. Around 40% of the global land area is devoted to agriculture. In the Union (EU), too, this share amounts to 43% ().Scientists and policy makers emphasize that this vast area of land performs many functions in addition to primary productivity (Keestra et al., 2016) and that this multi-functionality is under pressure (Stolte et al., 2016; EU, 2019).

, recent studies have modelled water, wind and tillage erosion at continental scale and shed new light on their geography. However, to acquire a comprehensive picture of erosion threats more processes need to be addressed and made visible to decision-makers.
With the Land Use/Cover Area frame Survey (LUCAS) survey in 2009 a pan- dataset is available for the first time, consisting of around 20,000 points across 25 Member States of the Union. The aim of this study is the generation of a harmonised high-resolution erodibility map (with a grid cell size of 500 m) for the ...

The latest projections of organic carbon (SOC) changes from dif-ferent Earth system models (ESMs) show a very wide range of values, adding uncertainty on land-atmospheric carbon(C) feedback under cli-mate change (1). Because the is the largest terrestrial C pool, differ-ent representations of SOC turnover may amplify the magnitude and ...
In this study, the distribution of 76 pesticide residues was evaluated in 317 topsoil samples from across the Union. The soils were collected in 2015 and originated from 11 EU Member States and 6 main cropping systems. Over 80% of the tested soils contained pesticide residues (25% of samples had 1 residue, 58% of samples ...

The differences in approach to assess loss by water erosion probably arise from the different circumstances pertaining at the time. Thus in the 1930s erosion was high on the agenda in the USA and was widespread (Bennet, 1939), and an understanding of processes driving erosion was needed. Plot experiments were set up at experimental ...

legislation, there is no uniformly used definition for manure: While Regulation EC/1069/2009 on animal by-products defines manure as “any excrement and/or urine of farmed animals other than farmed fish, with or without litter”, being an organic fertiliser, the Nitrates Directive (Directive 91/676/EEC) defines manure from farmed animals as “waste products excreted by livestock ...
Consequences of climate change for the climate in Central and the central plains of the United States. This study aims to evaluate climate quantitatively under present and projected climatic conditions across Central (12.1°–18.9° E and 46.8°–51.1° N) and the U.S. Central Plains (90°–104° W….
Background and aims depth is a critical attribute of any , and determines rooting, moisture and nutrient storage, mineral reserve, anchorage, and a range of conditions that affect plant growth. We reviewed papers from four primary journals and extracted how deep the soils were studied in those papers. Methods depth was obtained over a 30-years period (1989–2019 ...
Using the dataset resurveys, we spatially assessed changes in land cover in 1990–2018 and used these to estimate changes in naturalness. On average, 50.74% of the examined surface was classified as natural or near-natural, 41.66% of the surface was moderately, but recognizably transformed by human activities, while 4.43% of the ...

We studied their influences in silty soils using samples from two field experiments with contrasting long-term use (cropped versus bare fallow). The cropped had a larger organic C content than the bare fallow, and allowed us to compare a with pools of organic C differing in turnover time with a dominated by the passive organic C ...

Among the first scientists were the Greek Theophrastus (371 BC-287 BC) who wrote “On the Causes of Plants”, and the Chinese Fan Shengzhi (1st century BC) who wrote on many agricultural topics including “Field Usage, Plowing, Irrigation, Harvesting,” and other crop specific topics.
