Development of LUCAS Gully Erosion Model (GE-LUCAS v1.1) and a pan-European inventory of gully erosion channels comprising 3,116 locations (~0.8% of all monitored locations) affected by gully erosion throughout the European Union. In addition, it is available ...

This dataset includes the a) Soil organic carbon risk index b) SOC fractions predicted by visible near-infrared c) the mineral-associated organic carbon (MAOC) saturation.This repository accompanies the publication "Revisiting the soil carbon saturation concep...

In the LUCAS 2018 survey, soil functions have been measured in the 881 sampling sites selected for the soil biodiversity assessment across Europe. These soil functions include * soil aggregates (i.e., mean width diameter and water-stable aggregates), * enzyme ...

Observed/typical Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) index classes and associated pedo-climate zones across the EU and UK are presented in 2 GeoTiff files at 100 m resolution.

This dataset contains merged global rainfall erosivity product at 0.1° × 0.1° spatial resolution. The dataset is an integrated product of satellite (CMORPH, IMERG Final Run) and reanalysis (ERA5-Land) estimates with gauge rainfall erosivity datasets 6,170 gaug...

The dataset includes raw DNA sequences for 630 samples collected as part of the LUCAS 2018 Soil survey for the biodiversity module. The dataset includes DNA reads annotated as antibiotic resistance and biosynthesis genes (ARG and ABG, respectively) revealed in...

This dataset includes the Land Multi-degradation Index (LMI) for arable and agricultural lands and data fro 12 indicators which were compiled to develop the LMI. The dataset includes the agricultural lands of the EU and other European countries (~2 million km2...

The European Hydropedological Data Inventory (EU-HYDI) contains soil properties with a special focus on hydrological properties. It also includes various other measured soil characteristics associated to the same samples. It can hence serve multiple purposes, ...

Pan-EU assessment of soil degradation based on the latest state-of-the-art indicators of soil degradation as demonstrated in the EU Soil Health Dashboard. This dataset includes the 19 Soil degradation indicators plus the sum of all processes.

Global Rainfall Erosivity Database (GloREDa) includes point R-factor data from almost 3,939 stations in 65 countries worldwide b) monthly erosivity values and c) Monthly erosivity maps.

This dataset derives from the integration of the LUCAS soil survey with the bio-geochemistry process-based model DayCent. The model was ran for more than 11,000 LUCAS sampling points under agricultural use, assessing also the model uncertainty. Meta-models bas...

The LUCAS topsoil survey 2018 included a module for visual assessment of gully erosion. Gully erosion channels were detected in 1% of the visited LUCAS topsoil sites. Find the 211 points declared as gully erosion.

This dataset contains the results of a study that mapped post-fire soil erosion in Portugal and identified the areas with higher post-fire erosion risk for past and future climate extremes. Two maps are provided: one at 100m resolution and another at 25m resol...

Available Thematic Data Layers for Commission Decision of [11 June 2010] on guidelines for the calculation of land carbon stocks for the purpose of Annex V to Directive 2009/28/EC

We present the review of 54 articles in the literature and Member States policy documents which address Soil Biodiversity Conservation

This dataset (map) illustrates the variations in soil organic carbon (measured in g C kg y-1) within the 0-20 cm depth range for croplands and grasslands across the EU and UK between 2009 and 2018.

Process-based biogeochemical models are valuable instruments to monitor the P cycle and predict the effect of agricultural management policies. We upscale the calibrated DayCent model at European level using data-derived soil properties, advanced input data se...

A spatially distributed model coupling erosion, transport, and deposition to the carbon cycle was developed. Then, it was used to simulate the impact of cover crops on both erosion and carbon, to show that cover crops can simultaneously increase organic carbon...

Maps of Arsenic (As) in EU topsoils at 250m resolution. In addition, we provide the exceedance probabilities for the threshold of 1.5, 20 and 45 mg kg-1 . We also provide comparison with GEMAS data on As.
