True, the shrubs and trees in windbreaks protect soil from erosion by rain water.

Explanation:

The windbreaks that occurs in fields are linear plantings of trees/shrubs designed to reduce wind speed in open fields. It prevents soil erosion and protects properties from wind damage. Windbreaks are typically planted in multiple rows perpendicular to prevailing winds.

On the downwind side of a well-established windbreak, wind is generally slowed for a distance of 10 times the height of the trees. Old windbreaks may need renovation to function properly, including removal and replacement of selected trees/shrubs in the soil.

measuring light intensity

light meters can be used to measure light intensity. the meter is held at the soil surface and pointed in the direction of the maximum light intensity, and then the meter is read.

errors can be made when measuring light intensity by accidentally shading the light meter. the reliability of the results can be checked by taking many samples.
