ground cover

The term 'ground cover' as it applies to the area of carbon dioxide can be defined as ' Plants occurring naturally or planted to prevent soil from eroding and nutrient loss. Examples of ground cover include mosses, annuals and perennials, small shrubs in forests, grasses, and agricultural crops. Primary succession in which communities are established in newly formed habitats is often longer and slower than secondary succession in which communities are re-established in areas where they were destroyed. Plants covering the ground may vary at different stages of succession'.
