A Field Guide for Soil Erosion Risk Assessment in Olive Orchards Across Mediterranean Conditions for End‐Users and Stakeholders

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion control poses a crucial challenge to the sustainability of Mediterranean olive groves. To facilitate field‐level decision‐making, we have developed a field guide oriented to use in any type of olive orchard across the Mediterranean.

Winegrowers' Perceptions and Adoption of Sustainable Soil Management Practices and Technologies: A Case Study in Piedmont, Italy

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil is crucial for human survival but is threatened by erosion and contamination. Farmers play a pivotal role in soil conservation, thus, understanding what influences their decisions is crucial. The IN‐GEST SOIL project aimed to mitigate soil erosion and improve soil and vine quality in Piedmont vineyards, NW Italy.

Underground Lag: Fungal Community and Edaphic Legacies After Disturbance

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Páramos are neotropical mountain ecosystems that regulate water and store large amounts of carbon, but are increasingly degraded by agriculture and grazing. Although native vegetation often recolonizes after abandonment, belowground recovery remains poorly understood.

Evaluating Erosional Stability of Reconstructed Mine Landscapes Using Landform Evolution Models: Parameterisation and Decadal‐Scale Erosion Assessment

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ensuring the long‐term erosional stability of post‐mining landforms remains a major challenge in open‐pit mining. Reconstructed landscapes must support the agreed post‐mining land use, such as cattle grazing in the Hunter region of southeastern Australia, requiring stable pasture and minimal soil loss.

A Multiple Soil Threats Assessment for Europe by 2050

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT European soils are exposed to multiple interacting soil threats (STs), challenging the European Commission's objective of restoring healthy soils by 2050. This study provides the first integrated EU‐scale projection of four major soil threats—soil compaction, soil organic carbon loss, soil erosion and soil sealing—under two IPCC climate ...

From Knowledge to Practice: Information Access, Smallholders' Behavior, and the Adoption of Climate‐Resilient Soil Management Practices in Coastal Cameroon

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers in coastal Cameroon face accelerating soil degradation and climate variability. However, the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices (SAPs) remains uneven. This study examines how information behavior and motivational objectives shape SAP adoption in the Tiko municipality using a cross‐sectional survey of 122 ...
