Short summary
Soil health is of critical importance, and many soils are threatened. Benchmarking sustainable soil management is a challenge as there is no comprehensive indicator set. Here, I introduce a novel conceptual approach to soil health, representing soil functions as complex and hard-to-measure variables. I outline a new methodology to study soil health using latent-variable models to represent soil functions. This is a new starting point for soil health research and ultimately monitoring.
