Aims and Scope

Soil Science and Environment aims to become the highly respected and credible source of cutting-edge information in the science, technology and management of soil generation, fertility and nutrition related to crop productivity and quality, pollution and ecosystems. The journal will also provide a global platform to promote worldwide academic exchange and knowledge/technology dissemination in the field of soil science, agriculture, environmental and ecological sustainability.

Soil Science and Environment primarily publishes basic research that represents significant advances or new insights into the understanding of specialized areas, review articles that provide comprehensive, systematic, and critical review of a current research area and those offer directions or perspective for future research in soil sciences, environment and agricultural and rural ecology. The journal also publishes applied research that addresses the conservation and management of soil resources, biodiversity and landscape for promoting environment-friendly agriculture and protecting natural capitals in rural areas. 

This journal publishes original research, review, and applied research articles. Selected topics within the scope of the journal may include, but not limited to:

 Genetics and evolution of natural or human-disturbed soils
 Soil properties and soil functions as key aspects for soil health
 Biological resources and conservation in rural soil and ecosystem
 Soil aggregate and organic matter in relation to soil structure and biological process
 All types of -omics and -omics data analysis for soil life diversity and soil health
 Soil-landscape interactions related to human well-being in rural area
 Recycling and bioeconomy for rural agriculture and environment
 Ecosystem and evolution with rural development
 New methods or technologies for regenerating rural soil and ecosystems
 Natural contribution and the valuation of rural soil and ecosystem to sustainable goals
 Soil and land pollution control and remediation for sustainable environment

Soil Science and Environment also provides a community forum by publishing Editorials, Letters and Perspectives for expressing an opinion on a specific issue or a new perspective about existing research on a particular topic.
