degradation can have serious negative impacts on agricultural production and the environment. However, it is only since the 1980s that awareness on the negative impacts of agricultural intensification on water and resources has been expressed in agricultural policies and conservation interventions (see Louwagie et al.in this volume).

The new Monitoring Law provides a legal framework to help achieve healthy soils by 2050. It will do so by. putting in place a solid and coherent monitoring framework for all soils across the EU so Member States can take measures to regenerate degraded soils. making sustainable management the norm in the EU.

Abstract. For decades, geography has been mainly a qualitative and descriptive discipline. There are now technologies and mathematical tools available that allow formalizing geography in more quantitative terms. In this paper, the distribution and diversity of the soils of are analyzed using GIS tools and pedodiversity algorithms.

degradation is a global concern, decreasing the ’s ability to perform a multitude of functions. , one of the leading causes of degradation is unsustainable agricultural practices. Hence, there is a need to explore alternative production systems for enhanced agronomic productivity and environmental performance, such as agroforestry systems (AFS). Given this, the ...
In Central and Western , degradation problems are similar, although there is less sealing. Forty-five percent of the soils have a low content of organic matter. There are great differences with respect to the soils’ physical, chemical, and biological properties. More than 320 major types have been identified in ...
total carbon, total nitrogen and organic matter were mainly affected by AD, whereas FWL had a major influence on pH, ammonium and nitrate. Along the elevation gradient (150–175 m), the properties were determined mainly by the sampling elevation, accounting for 67.6% of the variation, followed by short-term (5.6%) and long-term ...
degradation processes occurring in the Union include erosion, organic matter decline, compaction, salinisation, landslides, contamination, sealing and biodiversity decline. Effective protection policies can only be based on a detailed assessment of the costs of non-action, and the potential economic benefits from enhanced ...
Early systematic mapping dates back to the early times of in the 19th Century and was developed at National scales mostly for taxation purposes. National classification systems emerged out of the various scientific communities active at that time in leading countries like Germany, Austria, France, Belgium, United Kingdom and many others. Different scientific ...

The estimation of carbon content is of pressing concern for protection and in mitigation strategies for global warming. This paper describes the methodology developed and the results obtained in a study aimed at estimating organic carbon contents (%) in topsoils across .
The main aim of this chapter is to consider the effects of elevated nutrients in a systematic way. A formal model is produced which illustrates the many ways in which (1) the nutrient supply can increase and (2) the manager can manipulate the system to reduce the supply.
