Nearly all weed control methods influence both the abiotic and biotic components of the ecosystem. These include the following: mechanical control techniques; cultural practices such as grazing, burning, flooding or revegetation, the introduction of biological weed control agents; and the use of chemicals. This paper reviews many of the risks of weed control and, in some cases, suggests prevent...

Revegetation has been proposed as an effective approach to restoring the extremely degraded grassland in Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau (QTP). However, little is known about effect of revegetation on ecosystem carbon density (ECD), especially alpine permafrost regions. We compared aboveground biomass (ABCD), belowground (BBCD), soil organic (SOCD), and ECD intact meadow, degraded, revegetated grasslan...

As a result of mixing soil materials from various natural horizons, mine soils generally have low organic C and total N content. In wet tropical climates where the vegetation is evergreen, we hypothesize that with start revegetation, levels will recover rapidly increase as time since revegetation increases. The in content implications for changes other chemical physical properties. development ...

This study investigated the effect of vegetation plant roots on stability cover slopes solid waste landfills. A large direct shear test and a root tensile strength were conducted to quantify rooted soil revegetation plants increment in as method protect slope In test, an increase ground with presence was observed, reinforcement proposed literature modified by analyzing correlation between diame...

Abstract Large‐scale vegetation restoration profoundly affects ecohydrological and hydrometeorological processes with consequent effects on soil water conservation. However, it is still unclear how revegetation the joint relationship between streamflow sediment yield from land‐atmosphere interactions perspective. In this study, we combine in situ hydro‐meteorological observations, satellite obs...

The surface mining activities in the past and in recent times has resulted into existence of number of overburden dumps through excavation and depositing removed soil and rock debris. These dumps require environmental stabilization/restoration, through proper revegetation. To achieve this aim, a study was conducted to find the efficacy of Mung bean (Vigna radiata L.), an economically important ...

The sand-binding plant Ammophila arenaria (L.) Link, commonly known as marram grass, has many characteristics which contribute to its usefulness in the initial stages of stabilisation of coastal sand and account for its selection for this purpose in most temperate countries. Research and experience in New Zealand have demonstrated the success of revegetation programmes based on its use in a pla...
