Fractal features of soil particle size distributions and their potential as an indicator of Robinia pseudoacacia invasion1

Abstract To study the fractal dimensions of the soil particle size distributions (PSDs) within different plantations (of Pinus densiflora, Quercus acutissima, Robinia pseudoacacia, and Larix kaempferi) and evaluate PSDs as an indicator of the likelihood of Robinia pseudoacacia invasion, the soil por...
