Abstract

Abstract. Accurate and high-resolution spatial soil information is crucial for efficient and sustainable land use, management, and conservation. Since the establishment of digital soil mapping (DSM) and the GlobalSoilMap working group, significant advances have been made in terms of the availability and quality of spatial soil information globally. However, accurately predicting soil variation over large and complex areas with limited samples remains a challenge, especially for China, which has diverse soil landscapes. To address this challenge, we utilised 11 209 representative multi-source legacy soil profiles (including the Second National Soil Survey of China, the World Soil Information Service, the First…
