Evaluating diagnostic horizons as indicators of ecosystem services through digital soil mapping in urban Gauteng, South Africa

2025-11-04

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Urban areas are strongly influenced by the ecosystem services provided by soil, which help mitigate environmental pressures generated by metropolises themselves and protect surrounding natural and agricultural landscapes. However, it remains unclear whether existing soil classification systems adequately capture the complex multifunctionality of soil that produce these services. This st...
