The internal EJP SOIL project SERENA contributed to the evaluation of soil multifunctionality aiming at providing assessment tools for land planning and soil policies at different scales. By co-working with relevant stakeholders, the project provided co-developed indicators and associated cookbooks to assess and map them, to report both on soil degradation, soil-based ecosystem services and their bundles, under actual conditions and for climate and land-use changes, at the regional, national, and European scales. The purpose of Task 2.1, WP2 within the SERENA project was to ‘Report about the concepts used in SERENA (soil quality, soil health, soil threats, soil functions, soil-based ES, bundles) with their associated definitions, and develop a framework linking these concepts’. A list of fifteen soil related terms that are key within the SERENA project was drawn up. From several different data sources being past EU projects, scientific institutes and literature, definitions for these terms were gathered and evaluated in a task group formed by several SERENA partners. After this, the most appropriate definitions were selected and sometimes adapted. This draft list was then evaluated by all SERENA partner institutes and using their comments, the task group drew up the final definitions list. Several alternative conceptual frameworks were developed for SERENA based on the definitions of key terms and the SIREN conceptual framework as the basis. After evaluating these alternatives, a draft conceptual framework was developed that is presented in this report. The draft framework, and the definitions when needed, will be evaluated during the course of the project and be adapted if necessary.
