Ground Bioengineering Techniques: For Slope Protection and Erosion Control

by Hugo M. Schiechtl, Roland Stern

This book, the first of a pair of volumes on bioengineering techniques, shows how vegetation can be used for the engineering and ecological enhancement of earth structures. Vegetation provides protection and stabilisation of both natural and manmade slopes along transportation routes (such as motorways) and for industrial, housing and leisure facilities.
