Many authors already showed that LUCAS survey is a useful database for digital mapping techniques: erodibility map (Panagos et al., 2014, Panagos et al., 2015), creation of maps for the topsoil organic carbon content of (de Brogniez et al., 2015) or a map of topsoil physical properties (Ballabio et al., 2016).

Semantic Scholar extracted view of "Status of local contamination : Revision of the indicator “Progress in the management contaminated sites ”" by P. P. Ana et al.

We start by noting that erosion research is firmly rooted in geomorphology, in contrast to the mainly agronomic foundations of North American erosion research. , the importance of field-based surveys of erosion has been emphasized by the findings of a few regional-scale, long-term monitoring exercises, most recently that ...

assessment reports showing that degradation is a serious problem . The overall objective of the Strategy is (i) to prevent further degradation and to preserve its functions, and (ii) to restore degraded soils. The Strategy recognizes that certain threats, such as erosion, organic matter

A strategic research agenda to make better use of land and soils . and land use research is fragmented . Now, researchers and practitioners have developed a comprehensive agenda on key knowledge gaps that research needs to address for the benefit of society now and in the future.

Abstract Compound events are extreme impacts that depend on multiple variables that need not be extreme themselves. In this study, we analyze moisture drought as a compound event of precipitation and potential evapotranspiration (PET) on multiple time scales related to both meteorological drought and heat waves in wet, transitional, and dry climates during summer.

, the Mediterranean areas are a hotspot for erosion and land degradation due to a combination of climatic conditions, soils, geomorphology and anthropic pressure. organic carbon (SOC) is considered a key indicator of quality as it relates to other fundamental functions supporting crucial ecosystem services.

Groundwater is the major drinking water resource . However, serious deterioration of and groundwater quality has been observed due to pollution from urbanization, industry and intensive agriculture. The lecture will provide a survey of the observed...

It had two goals: one was to inform the participants about the current developments in ecotoxicology (prospective and retrospective risk assessment of PPP in , the current state of risk assessment for plant protection products , available bioassays and bioindicators, and research projects on contaminants in ...

conservation . The state of the art of erosion research has recently been described in great detail in the book Erosion . The present website is meant as an inventory and overview of the current state of conservátion . The intention is to make existing information on erosion ...

Abstract. salinisation is one of the major degradation threats occurring . The effects of salinisation can be observed in numerous vital ecological and non-ecological functions. Drivers of salinisation can be detected both in the natural and man-made environment, with climate and the foreseen climate change also playing ...

The aim of this manuscript was to develop a methodology for the assessment of the sustainability of improving cropping systems (SICS) . For this purpose, a decision tree based on ...

A high resolution spatial assessment of topsoil Zn concentrations • Mean Zn concentration is 47 mg kg −1. • One percent of all samples had concentrations above 167 mg kg −1. • texture and pH are most important drivers for the variation in topsoil Zn. • Highest Zn concentrations are found near Zn deposits ...

Environmental quality is a major political concern and the important role of the is widely recognized. However, still has an important role to play in translating good intentions into policies supporting the implementation of innovative management procedures that can ensure sustainable production systems in harmony with nature.

conservation started to gain political attention during the last decade of the 20th Century and it became rapidly obvious that conservation was a complex issue, particularly , where long historical development has had a deep impact on resources (Imeson et al., 2006). Due to the potential of for ...

Figure Estimated erosion by water Calculated by the Revised Universal Loss Equation (RUSLE). While the overall patterns of erosion are generally sound, the validation of erosion data can be challenging.

Downloadable! compaction (SC) is a major threat for agriculture that affects many ecosystem functions, such as water and air circulation in soils, root growth, and crop production.
