Plants as bio-materials in addition to having self-renewal capability, cause no adverse effects on the environment. Vegetation in steep areas have an important effect in the process of soil erosion and its control in comparison with bare soil and therefore plays an important role in improving the stability of the slope. The effects of vegetation in slope stability and hydrological processes depend on tensile strength of roots and determining root tensile strength will provide the information required to analyze the role of roots in the soil improvement. The purpose of this study was to investigate the root tensile strength of Persian oak and comparing its values in leaf on and leaf off seasons. To do this, a relatively uniform hill was se...
