Scaling the Roots Mechanical Reinforcement in Plantation of <i>Cunninghamia</i> R. Br in Southwest China
The degree of mechanical reinforcement provided by plants depends upon its roots distribution in the soil and mechanical properties of the roots. The mechanical properties and distribution of root traits (root diameter and number) in the soil of the standing forest depends on the tree stem diameter....
