《歐洲土壤科學(xué)雜志》是一份國際期刊，發(fā)表的優(yōu)秀論文包含以下一項(xiàng)或多項(xiàng):新知識、新概念、新理解或新技術(shù)。原始的研究論文必須包含一些新穎的概念，科學(xué)合理，具有良好的科學(xué)質(zhì)量。審查和立場文件，涵蓋各方面的土壤科學(xué)也被考慮。合作辦學(xué)計劃的目的如下:?進(jìn)一步了解定義和控制土壤功能、發(fā)育和分布的化學(xué)、物理和生物過程及其相互作用?解釋土壤對更廣泛的環(huán)境或人類直接干預(yù)(如氣候變化、污染)帶來的變化作出反應(yīng)并與之相互作用的詳細(xì)過程和機(jī)制。?開發(fā)新的方法、技術(shù)和方法，就土地利用政策、糧食和水安全以及生態(tài)系統(tǒng)服務(wù)的當(dāng)前和未來需求，對土壤有新的認(rèn)識?舉例說明“最新”的近距離傳感、計步器、宏基因組學(xué)等方法在進(jìn)一步了解土壤方面的應(yīng)用?評估土壤生物多樣性、其功能以及與微生物遺傳學(xué)的相互作用。?在更廣泛的全球背景下，促進(jìn)跨學(xué)科理解和土壤功能在生態(tài)系統(tǒng)服務(wù)中的各個方面?了解土壤在人類健康中的作用，作為一種新型抗生素的來源，以及通過廢水、有機(jī)和無機(jī)土壤改良劑的應(yīng)用來管理代謝物和納米顆粒。

The European Journal of Soil Science is an international journal that publishes outstanding papers that contain one or more of the following: new knowledge, new concepts, new understanding or novel technology.Original research papers must include some novel concepts and be scientifically sound and of good scientific quality. Review and position papers that cover aspects of soil science are also considered.The aims of the EJSS are as follows:? further our understanding of chemical, physical and biological processes and their interactions which define and control soil function, development and distribution? explain the detailed processes and mechanisms by which the soil reacts to, and interacts with, change imposed by the wider environment or direct human intervention (e.g. climate change, pollution)? develop novel approaches, techniques and methods to obtain new understanding of the soil in relation to current and future demands for land-use policies, food and water security, and ecosystem services? illustrate applications of ‘the latest’ methods of proximal sensing, pedometrics, metagenomics and so on to further understanding of the soil? assess soil biodiversity, its functions and interactions with microbial genetics.? contribute to interdisciplinary understanding and aspects of soil function in ecosystem services within a wider, global context? understand the role of soil in human health, as a source of new antibiotics, and in the management of metabolites and nanoparticles from applications of waste water, organic and inorganic amendments to the soil.
