Abstract

Healthy soils contribute to a wide range of ecosystem services and virtually all of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, but most of the world's soil resources are in only fair, poor, or very poor condition, and conditions are getting worse in more cases than they are improving. A total of 33% of all soils are moderately to highly degraded as a result of erosion, loss of organic matter, poor nutrient balance, salinization and alkalinization, contamination, acidification, loss of biodiversity, sealing, compaction, and poor water status. Best management practices are available to limit or mitigate threats to soil health, and many of them mitigate multiple soil threats. In many regions of the world, policies or initiatives to protect or enhance the status of soils are in place, and they need to be strengthened and enforced. The Food and Agriculture Organisation will publish its second comprehensive assessment of the status of the world's soils in 2025, and this review provides an interim update on world soil status and offers an accessible overview of the topic.

世界土壤现状

健康的土壤有助于提供广泛的生态系统服务和实现几乎所有的联合国可持续发展目标，但世界上大多数土壤资源的状况仅为一般、较差或极差，而且在更多情况下，土壤状况正在恶化，而非改善。由于侵蚀、有机质流失、养分平衡不良、盐碱化、污染、酸化、生物多样性丧失、密封、压实和水状况不佳，共有 33% 的土壤出现中度到高度退化。现有的最佳管理方法可以限制或减轻对土壤健康的威胁，其中许多方法可以减轻多种土壤威胁。世界上许多地区都制定了保护或改善土壤状况的政策或倡议，这些政策或倡议需要得到加强和执行。联合国粮食及农业组织将于 2025 年发布第二次世界土壤状况综合评估报告，本综述提供了世界土壤状况的中期更新，并对该主题进行了通俗易懂的概述。

期刊介绍： The Annual Review of Environment and Resources, established in 1976, offers authoritative reviews on key environmental science and engineering topics. It covers various subjects, including ecology, conservation science, water and energy resources, atmosphere, oceans, climate change, agriculture, living resources, and the human dimensions of resource use and global change. The journal's recent transition from gated to open access through Annual Reviews' Subscribe to Open program, with all articles published under a CC BY license, enhances the dissemination of knowledge in the field.
