Preventing and Remediating degradation of soils in Europe through Land Care (RECARE)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2013, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2018,
Although there is a large body of knowledge available on soil threats in Europe, this knowledge is fragmented and incomplete, in particular regarding the complexity and functioning of soil systems and their interaction with human activities. The main aim of RECARE is to develop effective prevention, remediation and restoration measures using an innovative trans-disciplinary approach, actively inte ...

CAtastrophic Shifts in drylands: how CAn we prevent ecosystem DEgradation? (CASCADE)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 30 juin 2017,
The aim of CASCADE is to obtain a better understanding of sudden ecosystem shifts that may lead to major losses in biodiversity and ecosystem services, and to define measures that can be used to prevent such shifts. The focus of CASCADE is explicitly on drylands as being one of the most fragile and threatened ecosystems in Europe. CASCADE will investigate the historical evolution of dryland ecosys ...

"Technologies for Water Recycling and Reuse in Latin American Context: Assessment, Decision Tools and Implementable Strategies under an Uncertain Future" (COROADO)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,
"In order to be able to maximize the benefits from reuse and recycling technologies projects a larger systemic analysis of the environment is needed, an enlargement of the traditional narrow planning and management approaches, and a growing sensitivity to decision-making associated with multi-objective, multi-purpose actions and multi uses parameters. However, the problem is not centered on the la ...

Interactions between soil related sciences - Linking geophysics, soil science and digital soil mapping (iSOIL)
Date du début: 1 juin 2008, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2011,
As formulated in the Thematic Strategy for Soil Protection prepared by the European Commission soil degradation is a serious problem in Europe. The degradation is driven or exacerbated by human activity and has a direct impact on water and air quality, biodiversity, climate and human life-quality. High-resolution soil property maps are one major prerequisite for the specific protection of soil fu ...
