Study on the Vegetation Restoration Method to Reinforce Slope

Vegetation restoration method is a kind of new technique to protect the stability of slope, which has been widely used in railway, highway and hydropower projects in China. In this paper, the history of vegetation restoration method is firstly summarized, then the factors influencing the success of this method are analyzed, and the interaction between soil and vegetations, which is the most important factors, is discussed. Finally, applications of vegetation restoration method in practice are introduced.
