Mauro,

targetAttributeNode must be applied to the containing property type 
lcv:landCoverObservation[1]/lcv:LandCoverObservation, not the terminal 
node. I am not sure exactly what you should use in this case, but please 
see these pages for examples:
http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/data/app-schema/mapping-file.html#targetattributenode-optional
http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/data/app-schema/polymorphism.html#any-type

Kind regards,
Ben.
