Non-target soil functions and total microbial biomass were unaffected by DMPP.
Integration of soil concerns into other policies and preservation of soil functions.
Human activity affects soil functions and soil use in various ways.
Benefits will increase with time, as soil fertility and soil functions are restored.
Processes underlying soil functions(e.g. soil's role in global CO2 accounting and in the protection of biodiversity).
As an extreme form of land degradation,desertification results in a serious impairment of all soil functions.
(i) protecting soil and preserving soil functions and sustainable land management.
This is also consistent with the provisions ofArticle 9 on proportionate measures to preserve soil functions.
Soil functions- despite their fundamental role for the ecosystem and the economy, and unlike air and water- are taken for granted and perceived to be in abundance.
The Soil strategy and its related legislation aims to protect soil functions across the EU.
Sustainable development demands the preservation and protection of all soil functions in terrestrial ecosystems, both natural and anthropogenic, since soil damage or changes in the soil are frequently irreversible.
When extracting, processing and utilising mineral resources,impairments of other soil functions shall be reduced to a minimum.
Erosion is not only a serious problem for soil functions(estimated to cost €53 million per year in the United Kingdom alone31); it also has an impact on the quality of freshwater, as it transfers nutrients and pesticides to water bodies.
Where on-site mitigation measures are insufficient,compensation measures that enhance soil functions elsewhere may be considered.
Supporting research projects, particularly in the areas of landslides,soil sealing, soil functions and their link to biodiversity, the soil carbon and nitrogen cycles(with a focus on peatland restoration), soil fertility, and nutrients recycling in agriculture.
Where sealing does occur Member States should provide for construction anddrainage techniques that would allow as many soil functions as possible to be preserved.
The requirement to identify, describe and assess the impact of some sectoral policies onsoil degradation processes with a view to protect soil functions.
Planning scenarios for a sustainableland use management(avoiding land take) and soil functions assessments are developed by adapting the SbES approach.
The requirement for land users to take precautionary measures when their use of the soil can be expected to significantly hamper soil functions.
The proposal for the Seventh Framework Programme(2007-2013) covers research into soil functions as part of its“Environment” and“Food, Agriculture and Biotechnology” priority areas.
For the purposes of preserving the soil functions referred to in Article 1(1), Member States shall take appropriate and proportionate measures to limit the intentional or unintentional introduction of dangerous substances on or in the soil, excluding those due to air deposition and those due to a natural phenomenon of exceptional, inevitable and irresistible character,in order to avoid accumulation that would hamper soil functions or give rise to significant risks to human health or the environment.
More than 25% of the EU's territory is affected by soil erosion by water, which compromises soil functions and freshwater quality.
There was unanimous consensus that soil shall be guaranteed the same level of protection as provided to other environmental media,such as air or water, because soil functions are crucial for human and ecosystem survival.
Spatial planning case studies in Upper Bavaria,Germany and Tyrol Austria are integrating the SbES approach and soil functions assessment into the spatial planning sector of municipalities.
More than 25% of the EU's territory is affected by soil erosion by water,which compromises soil functions and affects the quality of freshwater.
Member States shall ensure that any land user whose actions affect the soil in a way that canreasonably be expected to hamper significantly the soil functions referred to in Article 1(1) is obliged to take precautions to prevent or minimise such adverse effects.
Several measures could benefit agricultural productivity while increasing environmental sustainability and resilience to climate change, such as increasing the diversity of plant and animal varieties, enhancing the functionality of agro-ecosystems and water management, promoting research and innovation,optimising soil function, facilitating knowledge transfer and training, and promoting technological changes through investment support.
Several measures could benefit productivity while increasing environmental sustainability and resilience to climate change, such as increasing the diversity of plant and animal varieties, improving cattle through breeding, plant breeding, enhancing the functionality of agro-ecosystems and water management, promoting and applying research and innovation,optimising soil function, facilitating knowledge transfer and training, and promoting technological changes through investment support.
