| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The feasibility of planting salt-tolerant transpiration-accelerating tree species on abandoned farmland where salt and waterlogging damage has occurred was examined with a view to addressing the salt and waterlogging damage caused by groundwater imbalance resulting from deforestation in Western Australia.
All the tree species showed high establishment rates in the test afforestation sites established in the abandoned farmland.Changes in transpiration in abandoned farmland with salinity in the soil were investigated by long-term measurements using sap flow sensors.We also studied the groundwater level around the salt lake-like area in the valley of the farmland, and found that the water level in the surrounding groundwater basin was higher than that in the salt lake-like area.This suggests that the area of abandoned farmland is determined by the dynamic balance between upwelling and evapotranspiration.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
西オーストラリアでの森林伐採に起因する地下水アンバランスが原因となった塩害・湛水害への対策として農耕地内に植林を行うことが有効であることは既に明らかになっているが、一部とはいえ農耕地を潰して植林を行う、という行為への抵抗感は依然として大きい。すでに耕作を放棄した場所への植林であれば受け入れやすいが、そのような土地でも植林可能な樹種がある、ということは実証的に示される必要がある。
本研究では耐塩性蒸散促進樹種の生理的な特性と並んで、比較的規模の大きな耕作放棄地への植林を行うことで、有効性の実証のスタート地点に立つことができた。
