The 2020 IEEE International Workshop on Metrology for Agriculture and Forestry was held in Trento, Italy, 4–6 November 2020, and a Special Issue of Biosystems Engineering will be published next year.

Authors of papers in topics of interest to Biosystems Engineering are invited to submit extended versions of their work to the Special Issue “New advances in measurement and data processing techniques for Agriculture, Food and Environment”. This call is also open to other submissions that relate to this topic.

MetroAgriFor seeks to create an active and stimulating forum where academics, researchers, and industry experts in the field of measurement and data processing techniques for agriculture, forestry, and food can meet and share new advances and research results. The Special Issue is particularly interested in scientific advances in agriculture and forestry environment monitoring, food quality monitoring, metrology-assisted production in agriculture, forestry and food industries, sensors and associated signal conditioning for agriculture and forestry, calibration methods for electronic tests and measurement for environmental and food applications.

Potential topic areas:

Sensor networking and integration

Soil analysis, mapping and monitoring

Crop analysis, mapping and monitoring

Precision agriculture, forestry and livestock farming

Measurements for agriculture, forestry and environment

Agroclimatic measurements

Approaches and tools for measuring Food Quality

Special Issue open for submissions: January 6, 2021 to March 31, 2021

Polysaccharides and proteins have been used for controlling the texture, gelling, thickening, stabilising, dispersing a wide range of foods. Since they are all biodegradable and environmentally friendly, non-toxic, and beneficial for health, their production and consumption are increasing. Foods consist of multi-ingredients and in non-equilibrium state, and in addition they must be palatable, thus science and technology required for the development of food hydrocolloids are based on physics, chemistry, biology, physiology, psychology and related sciences. Colloid science has been useful to develop many daily needs and can be versatile and applicable not only to foods but also pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and other biomedical products. In the advent of aged society, the need to take care of elderly, not only to extend their life expectancy but to maintain healthy life; hydrocolloids have been playing important roles to make safe, palatable foods for disadvantaged persons. On the other hand, from the global point of view, plant-based diet is thought to be a solution for sustainable development, and thus the science and technology of food hydrocolloids are also expected to contribute to this aspect. The Pacific Rim Conference took place online, where experts exchanged on these topics: future trends, texture and sensory, dysphagia, fundamentals and applications of gels, diffusion and release, emulsion stabilization and the development of cereal products.

The prestigious journal Geoderma is currently running a special issue entitled "Assessing soil functioning through invertebrate trait-based approaches". As we are acting as guest editors for this issue, we would like to welcome contributions from various disciplines. We kindly invite you to consider submitting your full paper to this special issue.

Submission Period: 1st March 2021-30th September 2021

The functional traits of organisms are the morphological, physiological, phenological and behavioral characteristics of organisms that influence both their response to environmental constraints and their effect on the functioning of their habitat. Traits can be qualitative and quantitative. Trait-based approaches have been used many times in plant or aquatic ecology. Recently they have been conceptualized and developed in soil ecology. This framework has proven its usefulness in identifying mechanisms linking ‘response traits’ of soil organisms and communities to human (pollutants, etc.) and natural (flood regimes, etc.) disturbances. On the other side, ‘effect traits’ are directly involved in shaping the effect of organisms on ecological function(s). However, the involvement of biodiversity in soil functions is often studied through the prism of axioms linking soil processes/functions to so-called functional groups (e.g. Bouché's ecological categories of earthworms), without the robustness of this link being extensively tested. Hence, fewer efforts have been dedicated to the identification of effect traits on soil functioning, and to the Holy Grail, i.e. linking response to effect traits in a same framework. The complexity of soil communities, their sensitivity to environmental changes and their engagement in many soil processes/functions mean that understanding the role of soil biodiversity in soil functions and terrestrial ecosystems processes in general is still challenging.

This Special Issue in Geoderma is a forum for promoting recent and novel research on trait-based approaches for linking soil biodiversity to soil (multi)functionality. It will mainly address the following scientific questions: 1) what are the explicit links between functional traits and functions in soils; 2) what is the level of functional diversity/redundancy in the soil communities; 3) is it possible to implement a Holy Grail framework for soil communities.
