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).
The current use of erosion models was investigated through an exploratory survey of 46 model applications covering 18 countries. This novel analysis of erosion model applications revealed a variation in parameterisation, incorporation of landscape elements and mitigation measures with implications for connectivity and ...

In the analysis by land type, arable land is the most affected category with a 1,694 km2 impact, or 47 percent of the land consumed between 2012 and 2018. Pasture land came next with 1,276 km2, or 36 percent. Forest loss affected only 338 km2. “The major land use pressure causing these changes”, the report says, “is the ...

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
Here, we evaluated country-specific SCS potentials of agricultural land for 24 countries . Based on a detailed survey of available literature, we estimate that between 0.1% and 27% of the agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions can potentially be compensated by SCS annually within the next decades.
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.
