The conference will bring together researchers from various disciplines related to soil and plant sciences and agronomy to discuss strategies towards a (multi)functionality of soil ecosystems taking also constraints of climate and global change into account. The conference aims at providing solutions for a sustainable soil management including climate change adaptation, which requires an understanding of soils at a systemic level and to assess their value in a socio-economic framework. We are looking forward to welcome interested scientists as well as stakeholders in the field of soil management for inspiring discussions.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #384452;\"><span style=\"font-family: Lato, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">We welcome contributions (oral presentations and posters) to the following topics:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #384452;\"><span style=\"font-family: Lato, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">1.

The book starts with the introduction on problem soils and the classification of these soils are included there under. In India, there is wide spread occurrence of soils with different types of constraints for crop production. Such soils are popularly called as \u201cProblem Soils\u201d. Cultivation in these soils is not so easy as several problems have to be tackled during cultivation. It may be either soil droughtiness or acidity or salinity etc. An attempt has been made in this book to cover most of the problematic soils in India. The classification of problem soils has been done based on the limitations they possess and the most dominant limitation is taken into consideration for grouping it under a particular class. Here five broader classes have been identified viz., soils with climatic problems; soils with physical problems; soils with chemical problems; soils with biological problems and soils with problems due to anthropogenic reasons.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #384452;\"><span style=\"font-family: Lato, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Read more:\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.routledge.com\/Problem-Soils-Constraints-and-Management\/Thampatti\/p\/book\/9781032388977\"><span style=\"color: #976036;\"><span style=\"font-family: Lato, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><u>https:\/\/www.routledge.com\/Problem-Soils-Constraints-and-Management\/Thampatti\/p\/book\/9781032388977#<\/u><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: Lato, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\">Emerging Pollutants in Sewage Sludge and Soils<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #384452;\"><span style=\"font-family: Lato, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Edited by Avelino N\u00fa\u00f1ez-Delgado, Manuel Arias-Est\u00e9vez, Series The Handbook of Environmental Chemistry, Springer Cham, 2023, 305 pages, 30 b\/w illustrations, 30 illustrations in colour, Hardcover ISBN 978-3-031-07608-4, eBook ISBN 978-3-031-07609-1,\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/978-3-031-07609-1\"><span style=\"color: #976036;\"><span style=\"font-family: Lato, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><u>https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/978-3-031-07609-1<\/u><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"color: #384452;\"><span style=\"font-family: Lato, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">, price hardcover 307.99 EUR, eBook 234.33 EUR.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #384452;\"><span style=\"font-family: Lato, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">This book provides an authoritative overview of emerging pollutants in sewage sludge and soils.
