  abstract = {{T}he scientific concepts of soil threats ({ST}s) and soil-related ecosystem services ({SES}s) are gaining importance and are fueling the debate on natural resources management and decision-making within the {EU}. {T}he literature reports numerous assessments of individual {ST}s and {SES}s at the {E}uropean scale. {H}owever, a comprehensive overview of the patterns emerging from the relationships between {ST}s and {SES}s is still lacking, which restricts the ability to limit soil degradation and its impact on {SES}s. {I}n this article, we provide an in-depth analysis of existing {E}uropean maps for three {ST}s (soil organic carbon loss, erosion, and compaction) and four {SES}s (climate regulation and carbon sequestration, hydrological control, biomass production, and erosion control) and the feasibility of combining them to study their relationships. {A}t the {EU}-level, 37 maps for these {ST}s and 17 for these {SES}s were encountered. {W}ith the notable exception of erosion, these maps differ considerably in their conceptualization of {ST}s and {SES}s, and in the indicators, methods, and databases used to assess them. {I}n the current situation, the combination of individual maps of {ST}s and {SES}s to study their relationships is rarely possible. {B}esides these limitations, we identify possible combinations and provide recommendations aimed at improving the compatibility between different {ST}s/{SES}s maps. {W}e conclude that there is a need for a more robust framework for conceptualizing {ST}s/{SES}s and for systematically and precisely specifying the chosen indicators.},
