名词 n.
中文释义

英文释义

名词 n.
  1. A hole or depression in the snow around the base of a tree caused by the tree's canopy preventing the accumulation of snow.
    — First, tree wells are formed when the canopy of a tree prevents snow from accumulating at the base. Tree wells are noted by a deep ring of much shallower snow around the trunk, with walls of snow just beyond the protection of the canopy.
  2. A structure designed to protect the base and roots of a tree, typically used in an urban setting.
    — A tree well is a great solution to a problem that often arises during excavation of a building, driveway, or road site. When excavated soil is carelessly mounded around the base of a tree, the tree gradually suffocates. Removing this soil from around the trunk and dry-stacking a tree well to retain the soil at a safe distance can save a tree's life.
