Potential for woodland restoration above the A83 in Glen Croe to reduce the incidence of water erosion and debris flows

Lead Author: Bill Rayner

By Bill Rayner and Bruce Nicoll This assessment was instigated by Forestry Commission Scotland, with the aim of appraising the suitability of the hill watershed directly above the A83 at the ‘Rest and Be Thankful’ in Glen Croe for tree planting and the potential for the trees and shrubs to reduce the incidence of debris flows […]
