- Abstract:
-
Root distribution characteristics of vegetation have a significant impact on ecological environment and reflect the vegetation ability of adapting to the environment. Root systems can also conserve the soil and water effectively. Soil drilling method was used for investigation of root distribution characteristics of vegetation on different slopes in Bashang Region, Hebei Province. The results indicate that there are obvious differences in the root distribution characteristics on different slopes. The coefficients of the regression equation of root biomass and soil depth on four slopes are different. Root biomass of the northern aspect slope is significantly larger than that of the southern, western and eastern aspect slopes. The vegetation on the northern aspect slope has greater growth potential than that on other slopes and so has stronger ability of soil and water conservation.
