| 摘要： | ► PLANT SPECIES THAT jeopardize roadway safety and the integrity of transportation infrastructure create a challenge for departments of transportation and local officials who manage roads.There are various strategies for this type of roadway management, but many commonly used practices negatively impact ecological health and environmental sustainability.For example, mechanical mowing practices are used to control unwanted vegetation throughout roadside right-of-ways (ROW). Current mowing strategies target undesirable plant species as effectively as they decimate desirable plants that would otherwise benefit a host of beneficial insects and animals, such as ground nesting birds, reptiles and amphibians, as well as migrating pollinators like the Monarch butterfly, all of which contribute to ecological biodiversity. |
