THE EFFECT OF WIND STORM ON THE ACTIVITIES OF VEGETABLE COMPANIES

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

  1. Background of the study

Almost all land plants have to balance five major requirements: first they need to photosynthesis, second they need to transport water, third they need to grow, four they need to reproduce, and last but not least, they need to have mechanical support under static and dynamic loading throughout their lifetime. One of the major sources of mechanical loading on plants is the wind, which, in turn, has a major impact on plant growth, morphology, physiology and ecology. The subject of plant interaction with the wind has been given a detailed treatment in a number of papers and books [1–7], there have also been discussions of wind loading on plants in other books [8,9], recent reviews of the subject of plant biomechanics have discussed the influence of the wind [10], and there have been reviews of the damaging impact of wind on forests [5,11] and crops [12,13]. However, the overall mechanical influence of wind on land plants has not been discussed together in one place.

In this review paper we focus on the mechanics of the interaction between plants and the wind in order to link the biology of plant growth, development and survival with the physics of wind motion and plant wind loading. Moreover, we deal with both herbaceous and woody plants (which have been often analysed separately) so as to draw attention to general features and traits. This helps to understand how plants have adapted to their wind environment and illustrates the impact wind damage can have on plant communities and ecosystems, and the consequences for commercial forestry, urban trees and farming. We look at modifications to plant cell wall chemistry and structure, the morphology of plant stems and branch structure, plant biomass allocation and plant architecture that resist wind loading. We show that plants respond to the requirement for mechanical resistance to the wind through a comprehensive hierarchical structure from cell wall to the whole plant [14].

We first start with a brief description of the wind in the earth’s boundary layer and how this varies depending on factors such as location, topography and the thermal stability of the atmosphere. We then discuss the nature of the wind around plants and through plant canopies, the wind loading on plants and the dynamic behaviour of plants in the wind. In particular we focus on the factors affecting the dynamic response of plants and why this is so important for understanding wind/plant interactions. The focus of the paper then shifts to the impact of wind on tree growth and cell formation and structure. We investigate in detail how modification of plant cell structure and plant biomass allocation during growth counteract the influence of the wind and we discuss how this changes with plant growth stage. Finally, we describe plant damage under wind loading, the different scales of damage from single needle or leaf to individual plants, plant communities and the regional level (Fig. 2). We discuss how plants have adapted to these risks and the economic importance of wind damage. Strategies that have been utilised to reduce wind damage to plants of economic importance are also presented.

This paper does not try to be a substitute for the excellent reviews of the subject of wind and plant interactions [1–3] but rather to focus on the interaction between winds and plants from a mechanical perspective. A glossary of key technical terms is provided
