Controlling factors of plant community composition with respect to the slope aspect gradient in the Qilian Mountains [PDF]
Slope aspect can affect soil temperature and soil type distribution, which, in turn, is likely to influence plant community composition. Three Qilian mountains, located in the northeastern part of the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau, China, with four distinct ...

Evaluation of slope stabilization by vegetation reinforcement: modelling aspects
In geotechnical engineering, slope stability is one of the main issues. In order to strengthen the safety factor of slopes against failure, this study focuses on the numerical evaluation of planting (vegetation) reinforcement as an environmentally beneficial strategy.

Effect of DEM Interpolation Neighbourhood on Terrain Factors
Topographic factors such as slope and aspect are essential parameters in depicting the structure and morphology of a terrain surface. We study the effect of the number of points in the neighbourhood of a digital elevation model (DEM) interpolation method
