Ecological Modification to Riparian Buffer Strips of Liaohe River, Northeast China

Article Preview

Abstract:

A section of Liaohe River in east of Shuangan bridge, Yingzhou District, Tieling City was selected as the experimental site to study ecological slope protection technique of riverbank in an agricultural catchment. Four ecological slope protection techniques, including combined biostabilization, Live stakes, Vegetation planting and Live stakes+vegetation planting were conducted. Results showed that through six and sixteen months growing, the highest shoot length and root length were observed in live stakes technology, while the lowest shoot length and root length were appeared in Vegetation planting technology. It indicated that Salix suchowensis is more suitable for the Liaohe river initially.
