Development of the conceptual framework for soil protection and management in the European Union
Published 2022-07-01Subjects: “…soil health…”The concepts defining the policy of soil protection and rational use (SPRU) in the European Union (EU) are considered. It is found that the focuses of SPRU have evolved significantly since the early 1990s. Initially the SPRU was not considered separately, it was associated with the protection of oth...

Spatial aspects of applied Soil Science
Published 2020-03-01Subjects: “…soil mapping…”The analysis of peculiarities of applied use of soil data has been carried out. It is shown that most of practical tasks require spatial information about soils and their properties. In this regard, a soil map is considered as a kind of interface between theoretical and applied soil science. The dis...

Global patterns and determinants of erosion-induced soil carbon translocation
Published 2025-10-01Subjects: “…Soil organic carbon…”Soil erosion is a critical process influencing the global carbon cycle. However, erosion-induced carbon changes remain inadequately understood, particularly for soil inorganic carbon (SIC). There is also limited knowledge about the factors influencing soil carbon dynamics during erosion processes. H...
