functioning contributes to the delivery of a vast range of ecosystem goods and services, and ecosystem health is therefore reflected by the capacity of the to perform underlying functions. organic carbon (SOC) is a key indicator for quality as it is an integral driver of many functions and associated ecosystem services.
In 2002, the identified declining organic matter content as one of the most serious causes of degradation, especially in southern . Mediterranean climates tend to have higher temperatures and suffer more from drought and heavy rain. This can speed up the decomposition of organic

health is a big topic in the USA, and “ Health and Food” is one of only five “Missions” defined for the new massive Horizon research programme for 2021–2027. But, and there I agree with Baveye, has to rise to the occasion and it will not succeed with a business-as-usual approach.
