This book is an up-to-date review of research and practice on the use of vegetation for slope stabilization and control of surface erosion by water and wind. The engineering use of vegetation (bioengineering), sometimes in combination with engineering structures (biotechnical engineering), is an increasingly important part of civil engineering and construction industry practice.
