Abstract

The anthropic activities during the last decade are causing damages on ecosystems. In fact, animal husbandry, agriculture, and industrial activities have increased the proportion of soils contaminated with pesticides and metals. The presence of pollutants could affect soil organisms and the Ecosystem Services provided; thus, a proper risk evaluation is required in order to assess the final environmental impacts of pollutants. In silico models are tools designed to predict environmental concentrations of released pollutants that could assist on substances evaluation and regulation. Meanwhile, the health paradigm, understanding the natural environment as an inter-related compartment, has been spread within the scientific community. Hence, the measurement of toxicological effects produced by contaminants on soil organisms (using in vivo tests and biomarkers) gained a high reputation for evaluating environmental health. This work presents different approaches, techniques, software, guidelines and tests for assessing contaminated soils; crucial for an integrative soil assessment
