EJP SOIL SANCHOSTHIRST Soil Dataset – Fuentenebro/ Burgos

This dataset forms part of the H2020 EJP-SOIL project SANCHOSTHIRST, which investigates soil degradation and the role of cover crops in semi-arid vineyards and olive groves across 15 sites in Spain. Data set represents soil physicochemical and biological properties collected once in autumn 2023 at two depths (10 and 30 cm). Measurements include pH, EC, soil texture, organic carbon, nitrogen, water retention parameters, bulk density, microbial activity (β-glucosidase), and above and below-ground biomass. Each record contains site-specific coordinates. Data are provided as Excel files and follow FAIR data principles under CC BY 4.0, ensuring transparency, long-term access, and reuse. This practice follows the FAIR data principles and aligns with the EU Open Data Directive (Directive (EU) 2019/1024), supporting transparency, long-term accessibility and the reuse of publicly funded research outputs. SANCHOSTHIRST (https://projects.au.dk/ejpsoil/soil-research/second-external-call-international-call/sanchosthirst) aims to address soil degradation in semi-arid vineyards and olive groves by assessing how cover crops affect soil health, carbon sequestration and ecosystem services under current and future climate conditions. Through field monitoring, modelling, remote sensing and farmer-focused outreach, the project promotes more sustainable land-management practices in Mediterranean woody crops. These vineyards lie on silts, sandstones, and marly limestone, with soils classified as Calcaric Cambisols and sandy loam texture. One is intermittently managed with cover crops (CC) for 5-7 years, and the other one managed by tillage (TILL).本数据集隶属于欧盟地平线2020（Horizon 2020）框架下的欧洲土壤研究联合计划（EJP-SOIL）项目SANCHOSTHIRST，该项目针对西班牙境内15个站点的半干旱葡萄园与橄榄园，探究土壤退化现状及覆盖作物在其中的作用。本次数据集包含2023年秋季一次性采集的土壤理化与生物学性质数据，采样深度分为10 cm与30 cm两个层级。测定指标涵盖pH值、电导率（EC）、土壤质地、有机碳、全氮、持水参数、容重、微生物活性（β-葡萄糖苷酶）以及地上与地下生物量。每条记录均包含站点专属坐标信息。 本数据集以Excel文件形式提供，遵循CC BY 4.0协议与FAIR数据（FAIR data）原则，可保障数据的透明度、长期可访问性与可复用性。 该实践遵循FAIR数据原则，同时契合《欧盟开放数据指令》（Directive (EU) 2019/1024）要求，旨在推动公共资助科研产出的透明度、长期可及性与复用性。 SANCHOSTHIRST项目（https://projects.au.dk/ejpsoil/soil-research/second-external-call-international-call/sanchosthirst）旨在通过评估当前及未来气候情境下覆盖作物对土壤健康、碳固存与生态系统服务的影响，解决半干旱葡萄园与橄榄园的土壤退化问题。该项目通过野外监测、模型构建、遥感技术以及面向农户的推广活动，助力地中海木本作物实现更可持续的土地管理实践。 该区域葡萄园的土壤母质为粉砂、砂岩与泥灰岩，土壤类型被归类为钙积雏形土（Calcaric Cambisols）与砂壤土质地。其中一处地块采用覆盖作物（CC）间作管理模式已有5至7年，另一处地块则采用耕作（TILL）管理模式。
