Abstract: |
Wind velocity profile gradients of three spatial arrangement patterns of Salix psammophila were measured.
The results show that belt shrub community has the best windbreak effect, while the random has the poorest one. Near ground sand transporting rate and roughness of ground surface of shelterbelts were observed and benefit/ cost for windbreak with different rows of salix psammophila belts were calculated. It is found out that spatial patter of one-row belts, 1.5 m. in height, 7.5 m in belt distance and 0.5 m in depth have the highest defending benefits. When with the same rows, the higher the plants are, the better are their defending benefits. |
