SoilHealthDB_V1.xlsx

Here, we collected, extracted, and integrated a database of soil health measurements conducted in the field from sites found across the globe. The database, named <i>SoilHealthDB</i>, currently focuses on four main conservation management methods: cover crops, no-tillage, agro-forestry systems, and organic farming. The database includes 5,241 data entries from 281 published studies. These studies represent 324 geographic sites (i.e., locations with unique latitudes and longitudes) in 41 countries around the world. The <i>SoilHealthDB</i> includes 42 soil health indicators and 45 background indicators that describe factors such as climate, elevation, and soil type. A primary goal of this effort is to enable the research community to perform comprehensive analyses, e.g., meta-analyses, of soil health changes related to cropland conservation management. The database also provides a common framework for sharing soil health, and the scientific research community is encouraged to contribute their own measurements.本研究收集、提取并整合了一套全球范围内野外实地测定的土壤健康测量数据库。该数据库被命名为SoilHealthDB（土壤健康数据库），目前聚焦四大核心保护性农田管理措施：覆盖作物、免耕耕作、农林业系统与有机农业。本数据库包含来自281项已发表研究的5241条数据条目，相关研究覆盖全球41个国家的324个地理测点（即具备唯一经纬度的采样点位）。SoilHealthDB包含42项土壤健康指标与45项背景指标，可用于表征气候、海拔、土壤类型等相关影响因素。本数据库建设的核心目标之一，是支持科研学界开展与农田保护性管理措施相关的土壤健康变化综合分析，例如元分析（meta-analyses）。此外，该数据库还提供了一套标准化的土壤健康数据共享框架，并诚挚鼓励科研学界贡献其自有土壤健康测量数据。
