Management of northern gravel sites for successful reclamations: a review / Lawrence A. Johnson.
Title: | Management of northern gravel sites for successful reclamations: a review / Lawrence A. Johnson. |
Author(s): | Johnson, Lawrence A. |
Date: | 1987. |
In: | Arctic and Alpine Research. (1987.), Vol. 19(4) (1987) |
Abstract: | Site specific approaches are recommended for the successful revegetation of gravel pits. These include 1) minimizing areal extent, 2) improving substrate characteristics for plant growth by erosion control and reuse of topsoil, 3) selecting adapted biological materials, and 4) proper siting of pits to enhance reinvasion by native plant species. |
Notes: | Arctic and Alpine Research. Vol. 19(4) :530-536 (1987). |
Keywords: | 581.524.3 -- Plant succession. 553.62 -- Sand, gravel, pebbles, etc. 622.2 -- Mining operations. M -- Engineering and construction. (*3) -- Arctic regions. |
