Technical report on aligned definitions and indicators characterizing agricultural soil threats and ecosystem services in various scales - EJP Soil SERENA Deliverable 1.2
The purpose of SERENA´s task 1.2 is to align research-based definitions of soil policy concepts, soil threats, ecosystem services and relevant indicators amongst end-users representing administration, decision makers and farmers from various European countries and pedo-climatic conditions. To communicate definitions and indicators to stakeholders and gather their opinions, an online questionnaire was developed and widely spread around European soil experts. The agreement of participants with proposed definitions and indicator allocations was demanded and the possibility for text comments was provided. The results showed a high level of agreement with the proposed definitions, only a few were rated distinctively lower than the average and therefore chosen for reformulation. As an interesting pattern, it was observed that rather new terms such as Ecosystem Services or Bundles were rated worse than more established ones. The text comments revealed rather clear and consistent critics and proposals for improvement, which were implemented in a set of new terminology.Files
