Roots: A Map

Posted on June 20, 2012 by demintedmint
I am working on a photo essay post about the importance of downed trees in an ecosystem.
Until then, here is a picture of the dried root system of a tree on the shoreline of Jordan Lake, NC.

Water and wind erosion strip soil from around the roots of plants until the plants themselves give way.

About demintedmint

Just a gal from the mountains of North Carolina. I love to travel and explore nature. So far, I have been to several areas of the US (mainly East Coast and Southwest), Ireland, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, and Mexico. My passions are anything to do with the environment and art/photography/DIY hobbies. As of December 2010, I have a B.S. in Environmental Technologies. Not sure what I'm going to do with it yet, but get a job travelling and saving the world. The blog I keep (demintedmint.wordpress.com) reflects my passion for the environment by addressing many pressing issues. Also, lots of other random little things that I care about.
