Towards a Quantitative Estimate of Anthropogenic Subsoil Compaction in European Croplands Based on National Soil Surveys Open
Subsoil compaction can lead to lower yields and reduced ecosystem functioning due to limited root growth of crops and can affect the cycling of nutrients and water within the soil. Subsoil compaction is often assessed using soil packing de…

Digital mapping of peat thickness and carbon stock of global peatlands Open
Peatlands, occupying merely 5% of the Earth's land surface, are an important carbon sink, storing up to double the carbon of the world's forests. The quantification of global peatlands carbon stock and their spatial distribution, however, …

PEATGRIDS: Mapping thickness and carbon stock of global peatlands via digital soil mapping Open
Peatlands, which only cover 3 to 5 percent of the global land area, can store up to twice the amount of carbon as the world’s forests. Although recognised for their significant role in the global carbon cycle, discovering the global extent…

Physics-Informed Neural Networks for Estimating a Continuous Form of the Soil Water Retention Curve from Basic Soil Properties Open
The soil water retention curve (SWRC) is essential for describing water and energy exchange processes at the interface between the solid earth and the atmosphere. Despite its importance, measuring the SWRC using standard laboratory methods…

Mapping Soil Strength Markers at Field Scale Using Proximal Sensors Open
The current agricultural system allows farm machinery to operate randomly, thus compacting around 23-33% of the land with critical levels in Europe. To tackle this issue, the European Union (EU) has launched the mission ‘A Soil Deal …

Estimating the soil subsidence and carbon losses from long term anthropogenic use of peatlands: A case study on a Danish raised bog Open
Upon drainage, peatlands subside and release stored carbon (C) into the atmosphere. However, little is known about the magnitude of the total, physical and oxidative subsidence (TS, PS and OS) over long historical periods and the past cont…

Mapping and monitoring peatland conditions from global to field scale Open
Peatlands cover only 3–4% of the Earth’s surface, but they store nearly 30% of global soil carbon stock. This significant carbon store is under threat as peatlands continue to be degraded at alarming rates around the world. It has prompted…

Unleashing the sequestration potential of soil organic carbon under climate and land use change scenarios in Danish agroecosystems Open
Future global climate changes are expected to increase soil organic carbon (SOC) decomposition. However, the combined effect of C inputs, land use changes, and climate on SOC turnover is still unclear. Exploring this SOC-climate-land use i…

Improving prediction accuracy for acid sulfate soil mapping by means of variable selection Open
Acid sulfate soils can cause environmental damage and geotechnical problems when drained or exposed to oxidizing conditions. This makes them one of the most harmful soils found in nature. In order to reduce possible damage derived from thi…
