TL;DR: In this paper, the authors surveyed the soil organic carbon (SOC) stock estimates and sequestration potentials from 20 regions in the world (New Zealand, Chile, South Africa, Australia, Tanzania, Indonesia, Kenya, Nigeria, India, China Taiwan, South Korea, China Mainland, United States of America, France, Canada, Belgium, England & Wales, Ireland, Scotland, and Russia).

TL;DR: SoilGrids as discussed by the authors produces maps of soil properties for the entire globe at medium spatial resolution (250 m cell size) using state-of-the-art machine learning methods to generate the necessary models.

TL;DR: The aim of this work was to study the diffuse metal contamination in the soils of a municipality in Northern Italy in terms of metal availability, and metal accessibility to the human body and its relationship to soil properties, considering lead, copper, zinc, nickel, and chromium.

TL;DR: This database intends to support the upcoming country-based United Nations global soil-erosion assessment in addition to helping to inform soil erosion research priorities by building a foundation for future targeted, in-depth analyses.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an urban soil quality evaluation method for different land uses within one particular evaluation system, and the calculation of three one-value measures of soil quality are introduced, i.e., soil environmental quality index (environmental value of soil) in terms of performing the crucial ecological functions of soil, and land use change index (land use planning impact assessment on soil resources).
