Soil compaction is when extreme weight is put on the soil, like the use of construction equipment or heavy foot traffic. <\/p>\n<p>Think about how heavy a bulldozer is; it\u2019s clear the weight of large construction equipment would compact the soil. Foot traffic is a less obvious cause, but when soil is wet or muddy, foot traffic can cause a significant amount of compaction over an extended period of time.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Soil Compaction<\/h3>\n<p>When soil gets compacted, the soil pore spaces decrease.\u00a0The smaller the pore space, the lower the amount of oxygen and water present and available for tree intake. This also creates a physical barrier for root expansion.<\/p>\n<p>To counter the effects of soil compaction we can perform what is called \u2018root aeration.\u2019 The main goal of this service is to fracture the soil underneath the canopy of your tree using a supersonic air spade with a tow-behind air compressor.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ahlumarbor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5920-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Air spade tool used in root aeration.\" class=\"wp-image-1988\" style=\"width:352px;height:469px\" width=\"352\" height=\"469\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ahlumarbor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5920-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ahlumarbor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5920-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.ahlumarbor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5920-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.ahlumarbor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5920-1-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ahlumarbor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5920-1-600x800.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.ahlumarbor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5920-1-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 352px) 100vw, 352px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Air spade tool used in root aeration.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>This fracturing creates cracks beneath the soil and allows us to add organic matter into the holes created to encourage root growth away from the trunk.
