When the LiDAR laser beam encounters an object like a tree or a building, some light is reflected to the sensor, as depicted in Figure 1. ...
Our company has a geomembrane product specifically designed to keep tree roots in place permanently. Usually called rhizome barrier or bamboo barrier is an environmentally friendly geotechnical material, usually about 2 feet (60 cm) high. ...
Cool season root and soil fertilizing is the best way to maintain year-round nutrient levels for deciduous trees, plants, and shrubs. ...
We installed various in stream structures; rock vanes, step pools, log sills, log vanes, root wads and j-hooks. We seeded and used erosion control blanket and jute matting to stabilize the banks. After seeding we planted various trees, shrubs, bare roots and live stakes throughout the stream corridor and in the adjacent ...
Due to the complex nature of the landscape around the tree, it was deemed unlikely that the tree’s root morphology would be typical. ...
Ecotube was installed in two lines, left and right of each tree. The results of the yield were much better then what was achieved prior to ecotube with drip irrigation. The trees have developed stronger roots and used less water since the installation. ...
The tree transplanter, tree spades or tree movers, whatever you call them, are a great tool to transplant trees from nurseries. So, during the last 50 years the use of tree spades is increasing worldwide extensively. What does a tree do? ...
In addition to the hydroseeding works, we also planted over 6,000 bare root trees and shrubs across the site, helping transform the once blighted land into a new woodland habitat that encourages the local wildlife. ...
The types of beneficial fungi that associate with tree roots can alter the fate of a patch of tropical forest, boosting plant diversity or, conversely, giving one tree species a distinct advantage over many others, researchers ...
When the Scalewatcher system is fitted, plants grow healthier and more robust as their roots are able to penetrate deeper into the moisture rich soil. Nurseries frequently use steam boilers to heat greenhouses. ...
Unfortunately this method of construction can badly damage trees since a byproduct of the excavation is root severance. Trees are extremely sensitive to disturbances in the soil around them reason being that, contrary to popular belief, trees do not have massive roots that go down deep into the soil but rather ...

Warm-season turfgrass quality declines under shade due to reduced photosynthesis, increased disease pressure, reduced carbohydrate production, tree root competition, and reduced lateral stem growth. Another factor limiting turfgrass growth and development under tree shade is variable qualities of light filtered by trees. ...
Tillage to disrupt (prune) tree roots is an intensive practice which could improve herbage productivity at the crop–tree interface by reducing competition for water. ...
AbstractForest management is expected to influence soil CO2 efflux (FCO2) as a result of changes in microclimatic conditions, soil properties, and root dynamics. We measured FCO2 during the growing seasons of 2003 and 2004 in both gap and non-gap locations within stands ranging from 0 to 10 years after the most recent harvest in a selection-managed northern hardwood forest in ...
