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 ...

Carrying out harmonised assessment and monitoring the health of soils across ’s different ecosystems and land uses is crucial but complex. In recognition of this, in July 2023, the Commission proposed a new law that focuses on improving monitoring to support the restoration and sustainable use of EU soils.

Such runoff and rainfall events with 10–20 years return period produce 70–80% of the total long-term sheet and rill erosion. The erosion rates for the Russia were calculated on 1980 and on 2012. The Universal Loss Equation (Wischmeier and Smith 1978) was used to calculate loss from rainfall.
