Description: This dataset includes the past reconstruction of erosion rates (incuding UK, Switzerland and Western balkans). The data provided have are aggregated per decade starting from 1860. The erosion change is driven by changes in land use and rainfall erosivity. The simulations have been done using the CE-DYNAM model.
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 ...
Abstract. In the 2022 summer, western–central and several other regions in the northern extratropics experienced substantial moisture deficits in the wake of precipitation shortages and elevated temperatures. Much of has not witnessed a more severe drought since at least the mid-20th century, raising the question whether this is a manifestation of our warming climate ...

The latest projections of organic carbon (SOC) changes from dif-ferent Earth system models (ESMs) show a very wide range of values, adding uncertainty on land-atmospheric carbon(C) feedback under cli-mate change (1). Because the is the largest terrestrial C pool, differ-ent representations of SOC turnover may amplify the magnitude and ...

With the Land Use/Cover Area frame Survey (LUCAS) survey in 2009 a pan- dataset is available for the first time, consisting of around 20,000 points across 25 Member States of the Union. The aim of this study is the generation of a harmonised high-resolution erodibility map (with a grid cell size of 500 m) for the ...
, recent studies have modelled water, wind and tillage erosion at continental scale and shed new light on their geography. However, to acquire a comprehensive picture of erosion threats more processes need to be addressed and made visible to decision-makers.

The differences in approach to assess loss by water erosion probably arise from the different circumstances pertaining at the time. Thus in the 1930s erosion was high on the agenda in the USA and was widespread (Bennet, 1939), and an understanding of processes driving erosion was needed. Plot experiments were set up at experimental ...

We studied their influences in silty soils using samples from two field experiments with contrasting long-term use (cropped versus bare fallow). The cropped had a larger organic C content than the bare fallow, and allowed us to compare a with pools of organic C differing in turnover time with a dominated by the passive organic C ...
