<h2>Investiture as "Doctor Honoris Causa" at the
University of Lleida (Spain) of Prof. Dr. Rattan
Lal, President of IUSS (13 June 2017)</h2>
<div class="team">
<p>One of the most relevant programmed activities of
the 1st World Conference on Soil and Water
Conservation under Global Change (<span

the ceremony of investiture of Prof Dr Rattan Lal,
President of <span class="caps">IUSS</span>, as
“Doctor Honoris Causa” at the University of Lleida
(UdL) (Spain), upon proposals of the Departments
of Soils and Environmental Sciences and of Crop
and Forest Science of the Agricultural and
Forestry Schools of UdL and the support of the
Sections of Control de la Degradación y
Recuperación de Suelos and of Conservación de
Suelos y Aguas of the Soil Science Spanish Society
(<span class="caps">SECS</span>). For this
investiture, there was taken into account Dr.
Lal’s long time and pioneer research, reflected in
numer ous publications, directed to solve problems
of soil and water management of agricultural
soils, and their relations both with C
sequestration in soils, control and mitigation of
climate changes and finally with food production
and food security.<br>
The presentation of merits (laudatio) of Prof. Dr.
Rattan Lal was in the hands of Prof. Dr. Ildefonso
Pla Sentís. For the ceremony old traditions of the
UdL were followed, which was founded in the year
1300.</p>

<p>Environmental protection and human food security
co-exist in a critical balance, one that is often

are pivotal to the conservation of agri-ecology.
In the EU, agri-environment schemes encourage

<h2>National Soil Health Measurements to accelerate
agricultural transformation</h2>
<div class="team">
<p>For scientists, farmers and ag policy makers, one
nagging question has yet to be completely
“unearthed:” Just how healthy (or unhealthy) are
the nation’s soils? The concept of soil health is
gaining widespread attention because it promotes
agricultural practices that are not only good for
the farmer, but also good for the environment. An
abundance of research shows that improving soil
health boosts crop yield, enhances water quality,
increases drought resilience, reduces greenhouse
gas emissions, increases carbon sequestration,
provides pollinator habitat, and builds disease
suppression. To help implement widely-applicable,
consistent measures of soil health, the Soil
Health Institute announces its endorsement of 19
national soil health measurements.<br>

<h2>Measured soil moisture improves wildfire
prediction</h2>
<div class="team">
<p>Despite the known connection between soil
moisture and wildfire danger, measured soil
moisture is conspicuously absent from the list of
variables commonly used in wildfire danger
assessments. Instead, assessments enlist the help
of the decades-old Keetch-Byram Drought index (<span
class="caps">KBDI</span>), a soil moisture
surrogate calculated from precipitation and
estimated evapotranspiration. In the absence of
measured soil moisture data, the reliance upon <span
class="caps">KBDI</span> as a surrogate to
assess wildfire danger is understandable. But is
the continued reliance on <span class="caps">KBDI</span>
justified when high quality soil moisture data are
available? According to recent work published in
Soil Science Society of America Journal, the
answer is no.<br>

<h2>Phosphate in Soils: Interaction with
Micronutrients, Radionuclides and Heavy Metals</h2>
<p>Edited by H. Magdi Selim. Published August 1,
2017 by <span class="caps">CRC</span> Press in
the Series: Advances in Trace Elements in the
Environment; 381 pages, <span class="caps">ISBN</span>
9781138803183, Price paperback £50.00, hardback
£102.00. Recent studies reveal that Phosphorus (P)
in the form of phosphate, a macronutrient
essential for plant growth, and crop yields can
influence the bioavailability, retention, and
mobility of trace elements, metal(loid)s, and
radio nuclides in soils. When this occurs,
phosphates can affect the dynamics of heavy metals
and influence soil characteristics, impacting soil
mobility and toxicity.<br>
Phosphate in Soils: Interaction with
Micronutrients, Radionuclides and Heavy Metals
utilizes the latest research to emphasize the role
that phosphate plays in enhancing or reducing the
mobility of heavy metals in soil, and the
soil-water-plant environment. It provides an
in-depth understanding of each heavy metal
species, and expands on phosphate interactions in
geological material.<br>

<h2>Comparison of dung and soil fauna from pastures
treated with and without ivermectin as an example
of the effects of a veterinary pharmaceutical</h2>
<p>By Dr. Jörg Römbke, Adam Scheffczyk, Jean-Pierre
Lumaret, Thomas Tixier, Dr. Wolf Blanckenhorn, Dr.
Joost Lahr, Dr. Kevin Floate, June 2017,
Umweltbundesamt, Texte | 54/2017, 238 pages,
download only, no costs. <br>
Soil organisms in manure or organisms that
colonize dung pats can be impacted by the
application of veterinary medical products,
especially parasiticides, to livestock. For this
reason, the authorization process for veterinary
medicinal products in the European Union and other
countries includes a requirement for “higher-tier”
tests when adverse effects on dung organisms can
be detected in single-species toxicity tests.
However, no guidance documents for the performance
of higher-tier tests are available, so far.
Therefore, an international research project was
undertaken to develop and validate a proposed test
method under varying field conditions of climate,
soil, and endemic coprophilous fauna. The test
took place at Lethbridge (Canada), Montpellier
(France), Zurich (Switzerland), and Wageningen
(The Netherlands). The aim of the project was to
determine if fecal residues of a parasitide with
known insecticidal activity (ivermectin) showed
similar effects on insects breeding in dung of
treated animals, coprophilous organisms in the
soil beneath the dung, and rates of dung
degradation.<br>

This book is about applications of remote sensing
techniques in the studies on soils. In pursuance
of the objective, the book initially provides an
introduction to various elements and concepts of
remote sensing, and associated technologies ,
namely Geographic Information System (<span
class="caps">GIS</span>), Global Positioning
System (<span class="caps">GPS</span>) in
chapter-1. An overview of the sensors used to
collect remote sensing data and important Earth
observation missions is provided in chapter-2. The
processing of satellite digital data (geometric
and radiometric corrections, feature reduction,
digital data fusion, image enhancements and
analysis) is dealt with in Chapter-3. In the
chapter to follow the interpretation of remote
sensing data , very important and crucial step in
deriving information on natural resources
including soils resources, is discussed. An
introduction to soils as a natural body with
respect to their formation, physical and chemical
properties used during inventory of soils, and
soil classification is given in Chapter-5.The
spectral response patterns of soils including
hyperspectral characteristics -fundamental to
deriving information on soils from spectral
measurements, and the techniques of soil resources
mapping are discussed in chapter-6 and
-7,respectively. Furthermore, the creation of
digital soil resources database and the
development of soil information systems, a very
important aspect of storage and dissemination of
digital soil data to the end users are discussed
in chapter-8. Lastly, the applications of remote
sensing techniques in soil moisture estimation and
soil fertility evaluation are covered in chapter-9
and -10, respectively.<br>

aberrations, deterioration of land quality, and
the globalization and liberalization of market
economies have become intertwined to influence the
