Accumulation rates of Cadmium (left) and Copper (right), 2010
Map (static)
Map of accumulation rates of Cadmium (left) and Copper (right) for the year 2010 in agricultural top soils (upper 20 cm). Data on: (i) manure application, affecting metal inputs, is based on livestock statistics from EUROSTAT, (ii) fertilizer inputs and crop yields , affecting metal uptake, are based on FAOstat, and (iii) soil metal concentrations, affecting metal leaching, are based on GEMAS (Reimann et al. 2014a,b)

Calculated cadmium (Cd) and Copper (Cu) accumulation in EU27 for the year 2010 for approximately 40.000 NCUs (Dataset URL is not available)
Calculated cadmium (Cd) accumulation in EU27 for the year 2010 for approximately 40.000 NCUs.
Calculated copper (Cu) accumulation in EU27 for the year 2010 for approximately 40.000 NCUs.
Footnote for both titles: Calculations are done with the model INTEGRATOR. NCUs (Nitrogen Calculation Units), being sub-divisions of NUTS3 regions, are unique combinations of soil type, administrative region, slope class and altitude class composed of clusters of 1 km x 1 km pixels.
This is a ‘one-time-off’ dataset. In principle, the dataset could be updated when new data come available on e.g. soil metal concentrations but this is not yet foreseen. An update has been made in the past however, between 2014 and 2019 (see below)
