Multiple concurrent soil erosion processes
<https://esdac.jrc.ec.europa.eu/content/multiple-concurrent-soil-erosion-processes>

Using a multi-model approach, we show the spatial risk of soil erosion by
water, wind, tillage and harvesting and where the co-occurrence of these
different processes is observed. Moreover, in a study
<https://www.nature.com/articles/s41893-022-00988-4> in Nature
Sustainability, we analysed where these locations of multiple erosion
co-occurrence are likely to intersect with the projected increase of
dry/wet climate conditions. Of the circa 110 million hectares (M ha) of
arable land in the European Union, our estimates show that 43 M ha are
vulnerable to a single driver of erosion, 15.6 M ha to two drivers and 0.81
M ha to three or more drivers. About 3.2 M ha of arable land are vulnerable
to the possible interaction of increased flood, drought, water and wind
erosion. For first time, we also present the data on tillage erosion. Data
for all erosion processes are available:

Recordings and presentations
<https://esdac.jrc.ec.europa.eu/euso/second-euso-stakeholders-forum>* of
the Second EUSO Stakeholder forum*

With the involvement of the Slovak State Secretary, several Commission
services, and almost 1000 registrations, the Second EUSO Stakeholder Forum
showed the high level of interest in efforts by the EU and Member States to
develop policies to protect soils while enhancing the ecosystem services
that they provide. The event was very well-received, with participants from
over 70 countries. The Forum was an opportunity to showcase the EUSO work
of the JRC to a global audience. The EUSO is an excellent example of how
the JRC is providing technical support and scientific knowledge to efforts
that go towards meeting the objectives of the Green Deal.  In the
Stakeholders Forum, we had the opportunity to update the audience on
various themes including: the latest developments in EU soil policy, the
state of soil science, new and ongoing soil research projects as well as
methods to assess soil health in the EU and beyond. Agenda, recordings and
presentations are available from

Soil erosion workshop
<https://esdac.jrc.ec.europa.eu/euso/euso-wg-soil-erosion-europe>* (June
2022)*

In June 2022, the *EUSO technical working group on Soil Erosion* organized
a 3-days workshop addressing the following challenges in relation to soil
erosion: Climate change, farm/field scale modelling, large scale modelling,
mitigation options & management practices, linking landslides to erosion,
sediments dynamics, early career research on land degradation,  soil
organic carbon and food security. With 333 participants from 63 countries,
the workshop addressed various issues in soil erosion research,   70
presentations are available from this workshop:

ESDAC 2.0 <https://esdac.jrc.ec.europa.eu/resource-type/datasets>

The European Soil Data Centre (ESDAC) hosts more than 95 blocks of
datasets, 6000 maps, six soil atlases, 500 scientific publications, and a
copious amount of soil-related material. Through its data repository
publishing activities, ESDAC has licensed over 50,000 datasets during the
past 15 years; 10,000 of them in 2022 alone. It has published 147 monthly
newsletters and it is followed by more than 12,000 subscribed users, who
receive regular updates. In this study
<https://bsssjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/ejss.13315>,
we make a summary of ESDAC performance and provide insights on future
developments: new data flows (LUCAS modules, HORIZON programmes) plus
technical advancements. Data in ESDAC:
