THE USE OF PINUS NIGRA L. FOR ARRANGING ERODED SLOPES
Abstract
Vegetation, as soil protection factor, has a positive influence during the process of land degradation through both canopy that retains some of the water and through the root system that functions as a drain. The main objective of this study is to observe how Pinus nigra trees growing arranged degraded slopes. The observations and determinations regarding biometric characteristics conducted in this study were: total height; trunk thickness at soil level; trunk thickness above 1 m from soil level; trunk thickness above 1.5 m from soil level.The papers published in the journal are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License, which permits unrestricted, non-commercial use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the work is properly cited.
