The presence of vegetation cover can be considered an important factor in relation to erosion, landslides and creep of slopes. The effects of vegetation are considered, by many authors, positive, especially for the mechanical actions of roots. The overload of slopes and the lever effect exerted by trees are considered negative ones.

Abstract

The presence of vegetation cover can be considered an important factor in relation to erosion, landslides and creep of slopes. The effects of vegetation are considered, by many authors, positive, especially for the mechanical actions of roots. The overload of slopes and the lever effect exerted by trees are considered negative ones.
