Soil lifespans and how they can be extended by land use and management change
Human-induced soil erosion is a serious threat to global sustainability, endangering global food security, driving desertification and biodiversity loss, and degrading other vital ecosystem services. To help assess this threat, we amassed a global inventory of soil erosion rates consisting of 10 030 plot years of data from 255 sites under conventional agriculture and soil conservation management. We combined these with existing soil formation dat…
The significance of soils and soil science towards realization of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
In this forum paper we discuss how soil scientists can help to reach the recently adopted UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the most effective manner. Soil science, as a land-related discipline, has important links to several of the SDGs, which are demonstrated through the functions of soils and the ecosystem services that are linked to those functions (see graphical abstract in the Supplement). We explore and discuss how soil scientists…
