Monitoring soil for sustainable development and land degradation neutrality
The adoption of the 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) listed in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development by the United Nations urged the scientific community to generate information for planning and monitoring socioeconomic development and the underlying environmental compartments. SDGs 2, 3, 6, 11, 13, 14, and 15 have targets which commend direct consideration of soil resources. There...
متن کاملLand Degradation
An overview of the Geospatial Methodologies used in order to assess the Soil Erosion Risk by water. 1.2 The damages on Land are traduced in " Soil Erosion " , " Soil Degradation " and/or " Ecosystem Decline " .. Introduction The Soils constitute one of the most important of the world's natural resources. Life on earth is totally dependent on well management of soils (Agurgo, 1996). Into of the ...
متن کاملA conceptual framework for analysing and measuring land-use intensity☆
Large knowledge gaps currently exist that limit our ability to understand and characterise dynamics and patterns of land-use intensity: in particular, a comprehensive conceptual framework and a system of measurement are lacking. This situation hampers the development of a sound understanding of the mechanisms, determinants, and constraints underlying changes in land-use intensity. On the basis ...
متن کاملTrade-Offs in Multi-Purpose Land Use under Land Degradation
Land provides a host of ecosystem services, of which the provisioning services are often considered paramount. As the demand for agricultural products multiplies, other ecosystem services are being degraded or lost entirely. Finding a sustainable trade-off between food production and one or more of other ecosystem services, given the variety of stakeholders, is a matter of optimizing land use i...
متن کاملLand degradation and property regimes
This paper addresses the relationship between property regimes and land degradation outcomes, in the context of peasant agriculture. We consider explicitly whether private property provides for superior soil resource conservation, as compared to common property and open access. To assess this we implement optimization algorithms on a supercomputer to address resource decision-making of individu...
