Root Channels

Root Channels is a morphological feature in soil micromorphology defined as a tubular or cylindrical void or infilled conduit within the soil matrix that originates from the decay or displacement of plant roots, distinguished from other biopores by its size, shape, and pedogenic context indicative of root-derived formation processes.
