To cover a wide range of topics in Soil Sciences, seventeen General Topics (GT) were identified that should encompass most areas of interest. Specific SC members will handle these topics (listed below). For the final Program, when submitting an abstract, the authors will be asked to rank their top two GT preferences for consideration. Following the review process by the SC, additional sub-topics may be introduced based on the themes received. In addition, the opening of sub-topics will be also considered upon request by individual participants or groups (deadline 31st March 2025, contact us at info@eurosoil2025.eu).
