Synopsis (short abstract) The proceedings book of the Global Symposium on Soil Pollution (GSOP18) contains all papers presented both orally and in poster format during the symposium. The papers presented have provided sufficient scientific evidence to show that soil pollution is a global threat to the health of our soils, human health and the environment. Many studies are related to the sources of pollution in agricultural land and the effect of soil pollution on the production of healthy food and the economic and social consequences of soil pollution on food security. Different alternatives for monitoring and remedying soil pollution were presented. In addition, several papers presented legal approaches to preventing, controlling and remedying soil pollution in different regions of the world

    The Proceedings of the Global Symposium on Soil Organic Carbon 2017 (GSOC17) presents the abstracts of all scientific presentations held during the GSOC17. 103 oral presentations and 35 poster presentations built the core of this event triggering fruitful discussions on the state-of-science in measuring, preserving and enhancing soil organic carbon in different soils of the world. The GSOC17 took place from 21 to 23 March at FAO Headquarters and was structured in three themes: Theme 1: Monitorin g, mapping, measuring, reporting and verification (MRV) of SOC Theme 2: Maintaining and/or increasing SOC stocks for climate change mitigation and adaptation Theme 3 - Managing SOC in soils with high SOC - peatlands, permafrost, and black soils; in grasslands, and livestock production systems; and in dryland soils
