, a component of land, is considered polluted when contaminants adversely affect human health or the environment. With every step we take, we could be standing on top of a very different mix and concentration of contaminants in the ground. The large variation of contaminants, soils, and climatic and land use conditions makes it costly to ...
The ) contains currently many data and information; most of the offered data are at scale, while, when possible, links to national or global datasets are provided. Datasets are organized in some broad categories. A first category contains the Database (ESDB), datasets that have been derived with the help of the ESDB and general ...
These 24 colours show the global classification of major types. Each type has its physical, chemical and biological properties, as it is composed of minerals, organic matter, air and water, and hosts many living organisms. classification is important because it reflects not only these properties, but also how soils were formed ...
Empowering citizens to preserve health. health faces a critical challenge, threatening ecosystems and livelihoods. Degraded soils endanger agriculture, biodiversity and water quality. In this context, the EU-funded ECHO project aims to empower citizens through knowledge, data collection and decision-making.

loss occurs not because of any lack of knowledge on how to protect soils, but a lack in policy governance. The average rate of loss by sheet and rill erosion is 2·46 Mg ha −1 yr −1. To mitigate the impacts of erosion, the Union's Common Agricultural Policy has introduced conservation measures which reduce ...
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.
