The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all UN Member States in 2015, provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet through the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The goals call for a deep international collaboration for the understanding of the main global problems and the search of strategic solutions, giving great importance to environmental questions. In this regard, severe soil degradation (e.g. soil erosion) has become one of the most critical phenomena affecting the Earth's surface. LASOSU2021, the International Forum on Land Degradation, Soil Conservation and Sustainable Development, 2021, will be held on 21-23 August 2021, in Dalian, China, to provide an avenue for scientists to discuss pressing issues on soil loss facing our profession and society.

LASOSU2021 was conceived in March 2020, and the first circular for session proposals was released in June 2020. Presently a total of 259 papers have been accepted, of which 66 are submitted by the first authors outside of China. More than 20 countries have been involved in the conference.  The conference includes 2 slots for Keynote Speeches, 1 slot for Focus Group Discussion, and 23 slots for Parallel Sessions. We hope that LASOSU2021 will be the place where we can share our ideas, engage in debate and learn from each other. We also do hope that this event will be followed by others in the coming years. Let us work together to assure the sustainable use of precious global soil and combat the ongoing degradation of the land for a sustainable development. The proceedings are published mainly in the form of e-book publications. In order to further expand the influence of the LASOSU2021 and strengthen the academic exchanges, the papers will be published in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure.

It is worth noting that all papers/abstracts accepted in the proceedings only if their authors have signed the copyright sharing agreements.

The successful publication of this proceeding is particularly grateful to the digital publishing platform of China National Knowledge Infrastructure. Nevertheless, we are afraid that language problems still exist although we have done a great endeavor. We sincerely welcome any comments and criticisms from those who use it.

This book contains the abstracts and full papers accepted in the International Forum on Land Degradation, Soil Conservation and Sustainable Development, 2021 (LASOSU2021). The conference was held with the theme of “Green Mountain & Clear Water” on 21-23 August, 2021, in Dalian, China.
