Features: This book introduces a new material technology for afforestation in arid and desertified areas—water-storing permeable membrane material. After wrapping water with this membrane and placing it directly at the root of seedlings, the functional water-conducting fibers inside the membrane self-regulate the soil moisture to ensure seedling survival and normal growth. The book covers the preparation of functional water-conducting fibers, the controllable water-permeation design of the water-storing permeable membrane, mechanical properties, environmental friendliness, self-regulation of soil moisture, and application research in forestry. This book is suitable for reference by a broad range of workers in fields such as forestry, ecology, water conservation, and environmental protection.
