The extent and causes of chemical, physical and biological degradation of , and of loss, vary greatly in different countries in Western . The objective of this review paper is to examine these issues and also strategies for protection and future perspectives for quality evaluation, in light of present legislation aimed at protection. Agriculture and forestry are ...
contamination is one of the greatest concerns among the threats to resources and globally. Despite of its importance there was only very course scale (1/5000 km 2) data available on heavy metal concentrations prior to the LUCAS topsoil survey, which had a sampling density of 200 km 2. Based on the results of the LUCAS ...

Analysis of P status was carried out with the model based on clay and pH (Fig. 3) since it was not easy to find reliable and current information on average annual rainfall at all sampling points of the LUCAS project. Additionally, rainfall is the most changeable predictive factor, and annual variation can be significant in ...

While semi-quantitative information on type at medium spatial scale (around 1:100,000) are widely available across , fine-scale information and physical properties such as available water capacity (AWC) are scarce, especially for forests (Baltensweiler et al., 2021). In this regard, the East German Survey System provided a ...
The topic Healthy Soils is a key element of the Strategy. This first edition of the Healthy Soils Conference Series addressed the relevance of healthy soils and fertility as prerequisite for a functioning society, environment, economy, and climate. The 3-day conference aims to brought together scientists, along ...

By using a biochemistry-erosion model framework, Lugato et al. (2018) quantified the impact of the future climate in the C cycle at a scale and concluded that erosion is unlikely to be a future carbon sink . erosion modellers face also the challenge to propose to policy makers specific guidelines to reduce ...
In this paper, we describe the WWW-based metadatabase, which is a product of this project. The database holds detailed records of 110 long-term organic matter experiments, giving a wide geographical coverage of , and includes experiments from the part of the former Soviet Union, many of which have not been available previously.
The Data Centre (ESDAC) is the thematic centre for related data . Its ambition is to be the single reference point for and to host all relevant data and information at level. It contains a number of resources that are organized and presented in various ways: datasets, services/applications, maps ...
This study uses 21,682 samples from the LUCAS topsoil survey to investigate copper distribution in the soils of 25 Union (EU) Member States. Generalized Linear Models (GLM) were used to investigate the factors driving copper distribution in EU soils. Regression analysis shows the importance of topsoil properties, land cover and ...
The EU strategy for 2030 sets out a framework and concrete measures to protect and restore soils, and ensure that they are used sustainably. It sets a vision and objectives to achieve healthy soils by 2050, with concrete actions by 2030. It also announces a new Health Law by 2023 to ensure a level playing field and a high level of ...
