Therefore, due to the combination of all the above-mentioned issues, the soil pollution becomes a hot topic. This chapter overviews the main aspects of soil contamination and demonstrates the main causes and types of soil pollution such as waste disposal, mining, agrochemicals, industry, and atmospheric deposition. Previous chapter in book.
Soil pollution, risk assessment and remediation. Soil pollution is a global issue that poses serious threats to human and ecosystem health ( Singh and Singh, 2020 ). Soils are crucial in providing numerous ecosystem services essential for sustaining life on Earth. However, the alarming reality is that we have been witnessing a rapid loss of the ...
The study of soil pollution is very important to a large number of researchers and those interested in the environment, due to the great impact that the pollution of agricultural lands has on the lives of humans and animals alike. The chemical and physical changes in soil composition are caused by the entry of foreign bodies. ...
The environmental processes related to soil pollution, such as atmospheric transport, dry and wet deposition, surface runoff, infiltration, evaporation and dust movement are all been considered in the multi-media model.

Soil pollution is a chemical degradation process that consumes fertile soils, with implications for global food security and human health. Soil pollution hampers the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including achieving zero hunger, ending poverty, ensuring healthy lives and human well-being, halting and reversing land degradation and biodiversity loss, and making cities ...
Measuring soil quality is an exercise in identifying soil properties that are responsive to management, affect or correlate with environmental outcomes, and are capable of being precisely measured within certain technical and economic constraints. Soil quality indicators may be qualitative (e.g. drainage is fast) or quantitative
