Dec 26, 2016 · The soil–vegetation relationship in such diverse landscapes is important from the conservation biology point of view because define habitat preference, and plant structure and diversity supported on each soil type and habitat formations; i.e. richest habitats in both plant and soil nutrient could sustain greater animal diversity and be preferable to conservation, whereas poorest habitats in ...

Jan 1, 2024 · However, Leung et al. (2015b) studied the effect of vegetation on soil suction under dark and sunlight conditions after being subjected to a rainfall event (a return period of 100 years), and found that under dark condition the suction in vegetated soil at the depth of 8 cm was higher than that in bare soil (see Fig. 9 a, c), and the suction in vegetated soil in the light is higher than that ...
Aug 29, 2023 · Still many useful inferences with respect to soil structure and plant growth have been drawn by several studies. The most obvious effect of soil structure is on the root growth. The morphology and the water and nutrient absorption ability of roots are significantly affected by soil compaction. The root system, in turn, influences the shoot growth.
May 20, 2024 · (a) Impact of plant species coverage on soil erosion was compared to bare soil, in which plant species coverage includes both the above-ground components (i.e., canopy and stem) and below-ground components (i.e., root systems); modified from Gyssels et al. (2005), and (b) Relationship between soil erosion rate and rainfall duration for different plant species. The relative soil erosion in ...
- Parent Material. Soil parent material is the material that soil develops from, and may be rock that has decomposed in place, or material that has been deposited by wind, water, or ice.
- Climate. Soils tend to show a strong geographical correlation with climate, especially at the global scale. Energy and precipitation strongly influence physical and chemical reactions on parent material.
- Topography. Topography has a significant impact on soil formation as it determines runoff of water, and its orientation affects microclimate which in turn affects vegetation.
- Organisms. Organism, both plant and animal, play an important role in the development and composition of soil. Organisms add organic matter, aid decomposition, weathering and nutrient cycling.

Nov 24, 2021 · Parcianello et al. investigated the effect of phosphorous (P) application on root morphology of Handroanthus heptaphyllus plants over a 36-month period in a subtropical climate region and demonstrated that the supply of P enhanced roots length and volume contributing to faster growth of plants. This research provides important information on the interaction between root growth and P ...
