ABSTRACT
Environmental geotechnology can be defined as an interdisciplinary science that covers soil and rock and their interaction with various environmental cycles, including the atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere as well as the geomicrobiosphere (Fang, 1986), which includes characteristics of tree and vegetation roots and bacterial activities in the ground soil and subsequent response to the engineering behavior of the soil-water system, as illustrated in Figure 1.1.
