Defining Soil Compaction: Sites & Trees

2.34210526316

The health and structure of trees are reflections of soil health. The ecological processes which govern tree survival and growth are concentrated around the soil/root interface. As soils, and associated resources change, tree systems must change to effectively utilize and tolerate changing resources quantities and qualities, as well as the physical space available. Soil compaction is a major tree-limiting feature of community forest managers and arborists.
