Abstract:
Land degradation is a complex environmental disturbance acting via multiple pathways, which, to date, have been investigated in an isolated (unilateral) manner, focused on singular (individual) degradation processes. This project proposes an integrating (unifying) scientific analysis of the multiple processes present in European agricultural environments, by considering 12 major processes (water erosion, wind erosion, soil organic carbon loss, soil salinization, soil acidification, soil compaction, soil nutrient imbalances, soil pollution via pesticides, soil pollution via heavy metals, vegetation degradation, groundwater decline and aridity) that affect agricultural lands in 40 continental countries. The methodological approach of the present project allows the geospatial modelling, for the first time, of multiple convergent degradation processes, which act in synergy and generate a wide range of negative effects continentally, i.e. they lower agricultural productivity, amplify climate change, and jeopardize governmental sustainable development objectives. The expected results of the detailed investigation of agricultural land multi-degradation have a multidimensional importance for current European policies, which aim to control land degradation and ensure food security on the continent. Also, the expected complex results can be a valuable informational support for policies intended to combat climate change and implement sustainable development, two essential conditions for Europe's socio-economic stability and prosperity. This triple positive impact of the project was designed to be as effective as possible, by establishing multiple vectors for disseminating results to various policymakers or stakeholders active in European agriculture.

Abstract:
The research project aims to model the current and future terrain suitability for the main crops in Romania, considering both
current climate and its predicted future evolution under 2 greenhouse emission scenarios. For this purpose, the project will create a high resolution GIS database for the entire country, comprising the soil, relief and climate parameters which control land suitability for crops. The soil parameters will be mapped using various geomatic methods (statistical, machine-learning methods, fuzzy classifications) and the best spatial model will be selected for each parameters based on independent sample validation. Spatial modelling will start from a consistent point soil database and high resolution predictors. The climate parameters will be extracted from ROCADA database, for the current period, and from CHELSA database for the future period and they will be downscaled to a higher resolution by geostatistical techniques. For land suitability evolution, we will apply the current standard Romanian methodology (ICPA, 1987), using both current and predicted climate data, resulting the probable evolution of land suitability. We also will attempt to improve the current methodology by deepening the climate suitability evaluation and by testing alternative methods of suitability parameters' aggregation.

Abstract:
The main purpose of this project is to provide an integrated platform for large scale soil mapping and land resources management designed specifically not only for soil surveyors, but also for agricultural stakeholders. Through this platform, the soil surveyors can easily access various spatial layers representing different soil forming factors (lithology, terrain features and properties, climate, land use/cover, vegetation, hydrology) and ancillary soil data (soil profile characteristics, chemical and physical analyses, soil units properties, etc.) to help them produce more accurate soil and land suitability maps. The resulting data and maps will automatically update the geodatabase so they will be available for future use. Also, through web mapping applications, the agricultural stakeholders can access valuable information regarding land characteristics in terms of soil properties and quality, which enables them to take better decisions and properly manage their farm.

Abstract:
Proiectul de cercetare propune testarea unor metodologii moderne si de mare
actualitate de cartografiere digitala a unitatilor taxonomice de sol si a insusirilor sale, oferind
astfel o alternativa la cartografierea clasica, prin apelul la o gama larga de metode si mijloace
catitative de cercetare, incluzand Sistemele Informationale Geografice, teledetectia si
metodele geostatistice. Scopul principal al proiectului il reprezinta imbunatatireacartografierii resurselor de sol la scara locala si cresterea acuratetii limitelor spatiale,
demersul conducand mai departe la o mai buna intelegere a modelelor spatiale pedoclimatice
si a factorilor de control si implicit la o mai buna gestionare a acestor resurse.
