Leaflet: Detection of Higher-Form Erosion via Remote Sensing

This report presents findings from the TUDi Horizon 2020 project (2021–2025), a multi-institutional research initiative led by José A. Gómez at Spain’s Institute of Sustainable Agriculture. It evaluates sustainable agricultural practices across China, Austria, Spain, Italy, and other countries, focusing on soil health, erodibility, water budget, nutrient balance, and soil structure. Key metrics rate soil health and erodibility highly (***), while water budget and nutrient balance receive moderate scores (**). Soil life and practicability are rated lower (* and **), indicating areas needing improvement. The project prioritises soil conservation and erosion control, integrating scientific data with practical recommendations for sustainable land management. Findings support evidence-based strategies for land use, conservation, and disaster mitigation. Contact the coordinator for further details.
