Abstract: Pinus massoniana resources in Southern China are abundant which play extremely important role in forest resources. However, most of Pinus massoniana woodlands have occurred different degrees of degradation and these woodlands are difficult to play forest ecosystem functions. Therefore, how to restore the ecological functions of the degraded woodland is a serious problem. This paper summarizes the vegetation restoration ways, restoration patterns and their benefits in order to provide references for further management of degraded woodland in different areas. Meanwhile, the study prospects of degraded Pinus massoniana woodland were proposed, which enrich the study contents of ecological restoration of degraded woodland.
Keywords: Pinus Massoniana; Ecosystem Degradation; Vegetation Restoration; Soil Erosion
