Soil
Soil indicators help assess the health and carbon storage capacity of land. They measure organic carbon stored in soil using advanced modeling techniques that combine soil baseline data with satellite monitoring of land management practices. These measurements not only provide current carbon stock assessments but also help forecast future carbon storage potential under different land management scenarios, making them valuable tools for improving soil health over time.
Tracks the use of cover crops, a key regenerative agriculture practice that improves soil health and farm sustainability.
Estimates soil loss from water erosion using a dynamic, satellite-driven erosion model (RUSLE), helping to identify and manage land degradation risks. Inversion of erosion figure to generate retention figure.
Offers globally consistent data on key soil characteristics, essential for informed land management.
Evaluates crop and climate suitability for various crops, helping to optimize agricultural planning and adapt to climate change.
Measures the acidity or alkalinity of the upper soil layer, a key factor influencing nutrient availability and plant growth.
Maps global patterns of soil biodiversity and ecosystem functions based on the European Commission’s Global Soil Biodiversity Atlas.
Provides global reference data on soil and environmental microbial diversity based on DNA sequencing from the Earth Microbiome Project.
Measures key soil nutrient concentrations—potassium (K), phosphorus (P), and nitrogen (N)—to assess soil fertility, nutrient balance, and suitability for agricultural productivity and ecosystem health.
Evaluates the physical condition of soil through indicators such as bulk density and erosion risk, providing insight into soil structure, compaction, and stability that influence water infiltration and root growth.
Evaluates the soil’s capacity to recover its structure, function, and productivity after disturbance, integrating physical, chemical, and biological indicators into a composite measure of soil stability and adaptive capacity.
Assesses soil biological activity through key indicators such as microbial biomass, fungal and bacterial abundance, and soil respiration rates, reflecting overall soil health and ecosystem functioning.
On-site measurements of soil condition using methods such as eDNA analysis, decomposition tests, and bulk density sampling to assess soil biodiversity, structure, and organic matter dynamics.
