The phrase "accumulation of vegetation" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing ecological or environmental topics, particularly when referring to the growth or gathering of plant life in a specific area.
Example: "The accumulation of vegetation in the wetlands has significantly improved the local ecosystem by providing habitat for various species."
Alternatives: "build-up of plant life" or "gathering of flora".
The site, off Route 104 in Flanders, is highly flammable because of the accumulation of dead vegetation, Mr. Kurtz said.
Peat is an accumulation of partially vegetation or organic matter which has been used as a bulking agent because it has high water absorption capacity, is rich enough in exchangeable H+ ions to neutralize the ammonia and the cations released by decomposition prevents the loss of ammonia by remaining slightly acidic environment throughout the composting process.
On the other hands, the low lying areas and old water courses give rise to predominantly stagnant water in which accumulation of decayed vegetation would have taken place in geological past resulting in peat and soft organic clay formation at surface and to some depth.
Biomass accumulation of regenerating vegetation after burning drastically declines after five years, while it takes 10 years of fallowing to restore 75% of organic material in the soil (Dorland et al. 1988).
In the past, a combination of high summer temperatures, strong winds, late summer drought, and accumulations of dead vegetation set the stage for many naturally caused fires, which prevented trees from becoming abundant in prairie vegetation.
Land retirement in discharge areas with water tables within the critical water table depth combined with the introduction of (natural) vegetation will lead to the accumulation of salts in the vegetation's rootzone.
Development of heterotrophic food webs depends on establishing good coverage of vegetation and accumulation of soil organic matter and nitrogen (N).
There was a lot of fire before European settlement in the Western United States – and that regular fire controlled the accumulation of dead and living vegetation in many ecosystems, restricting the amount of fuel that could build up, and keeping fires relatively low temperature.
Abiotic site factors are affected by changes in atmospheric deposition of sulphur (S) and N compounds (Galloway 1995), groundwater level changes (Van Wirdum 1991; Van Diggelen et al. 1996), changes in management and land use (Bakker 1989; Uuttera et al. 1996) and internal processes such as accumulation of organic matter and vegetation succession (Van Andel et al. 1993; Olff et al. 1997).
We observed an overall accumulation of soil organic carbon irrespective of vegetation type, with a mean rate of 28.0 g C m−2 yr−1 across Tibetan permafrost regions.
