Soil influences human health in a variety of ways, with being linked to the soil. Historically, emphasis has been placed on negative impacts that soils have health, including exposures toxins and pathogenic organisms or problems created by growing crops nutrient-deficient soils. However, there are number positive ways enhance from food production nutrient supply medications enhancement immune system. It is increasingly recognized soil an ecosystem myriad interconnected parts, each...
Soil and water losses due to agricultural mismanagement are high non-sustainable in many orchards. An experiment was set up with rainfall simulation at 78 mm h–1 over 1 hour on 20 paired plots of 2 m2 (bare straw covered) new persimmon plantations Eastern Spain. Effects cover the control soil were assessed. addition 60% (75 g m–2) resulted delayed ponding runoff generation consequently reduced from 13% total rainfall. The raindrop impact thus sediment detachment 1014 47 plot–1 h–1. erosion...
The COVID-19 pandemic has stalled and rolled back progress on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Ecosystem services (ESs), defined as the contributions of ecosystems to human well-being, underpin achievement SDGs. To promote SDG in post-pandemic era, we teased out links between ESs SDGs while examining impact COVID-19. We found that benefited all SDGs, yet man-made pressures led degradation their services. There is broad consensus virus lurks degraded generates spillover due interference....
Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic continues to pose substantial challenges achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Exploring systematic SDG strategies is urgently needed aid recovery from and reinvigorate global actions. Based on available data comprehensive analysis of literature, this paper highlights ongoing facing SDGs, identifies effects progress, proposes a framework for promoting achievement SDGs in post-pandemic era. Progress towards attaining was already lagging behind even...
Backed by the Biodiversity Strategy to 2020 and 2030, numerous 'Mapping Assessment of Ecosystem Services' (MAES) projects have been completed in recent years member states European Union, with substantial results insights accumulated. The experience from different approaches is a valuable source information for developing assessment processes further, especially regard their uptake into policy more recently, ecosystem accounting. Systematic towards best practices lessons learned national...
Abstract Cork oak, ( Quercus suber ) is widely distributed in the Mediterranean region, an area subject to frequent fires. The ash produced by burning can have impacts on soil status and water resources that differ according temperature reached during fire characteristics of litter, defined as dead organic matter accumulated surface prior fire. aim this work determine physical chemical laboratory experiments approximate conditions typical fires region. litter collected from two different...
The implementation of strategies to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is frequently hindered by potential trade-offs between priorities for either environmental protection or human well-being. However, ecosystem services (ES)-based solutions can offer possible co-benefits SDGs that are often overlooked underexploited. In this study, we cover gap and investigate how experts from different countries value relate them with ES. A total 66 participated survey, answers were grouped...
Abstract Ash can provide valuable soil protection. However, ash is also very mobile, and protection patterns be quickly changed, favouring the of some areas exposing others with implications for erosion. In this research, effects a high severity wildfire on thickness were studied, 1 15 days after fire. For evaluation, several interpolation methods tested to identify best spatial predictor distribution. The results showed that day fire, was thinner in areas. Fifteen decreased, pattern...
