Towards understanding tree root profiles: simulating hydrologically optimal strategies for root distribution
In this modelling study differences in vertical root distributions measured in four contrasting forest locations in the Netherlands were investigated. Root distributions are seen as a reflection of the plant’s optimisation strategy, based on hydrological grounds. The ‘optimal’ root distribution is defined as the one that maximises the water uptake from the root zone over a period of ten years. ...
متن کاملVertical root distribution and root cohesion of typical tree species on the Loess Plateau, China
Black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) and Chinese pine (Pinus tabulaeformis Carr.) are two woody plants that are widely planted on the Loess Plateau for controlling soil erosion and land desertification. In this study, we conducted an excavation experiment in 2008 to investigate the overall vertical root distribution characteristics of black locust and Chinese pine. We also performed triaxial ...
متن کاملRoot-Balanced Tree
Andersson [1, 2] introduced general balanced trees, search trees based on the design principle of partial rebuilding: perform update operations naively until the tree becomes too unbalanced, at which point a whole subtree is rebalanced. This article defines and analyzes a functional version of general balanced trees, which we call root-balanced trees. Using a lightweight model of execution time...
متن کامل3D-laser scanning: a new method to analyze coarse tree root systems
Details about the spatiotemporal development of root systems and their influence on ring-width variations in tree stems are still unknown. Furthermore, their size, spread and architecture play an important role in studying tree stability and their stabilizing effect on slopes. A major problem in this regard is the detailed 3D-data acquisition and modeling of its complex structure. The appli cat...
