- A windbreak or shelterbelt is a plantation usually made up of one or more rows of trees or shrubs planted in such a manner as to provide shelter from the wind and to protect soil from erosion. Wikipedia
- Example sentence(s)
- The establishment of a field shelterbelt requires a considerable amount of field preparation; valuable farmland has to be withdrawn from production of crops and the immediate strip of land alongside the shelterbelt loses its productivity. - Government of Alberta by
- The innermost rows of a shelterbelt should consist of tall, deciduous trees. Use the smaller trees and shrubs on the leeward side. Shrubs planted in the outermost rows will catch drifting snow. The resulting vertical structure of the shelterbelt directs wind over the area to be protected. - Ohio State University by

- Definition(s)
- Der er en meget lang tradition for at plante læbælter i Danmark. Rundt omkring står der stadig rester af de første enkeltrækkede læbælter af sitka- eller hvidgran, men ellers er det primært løvtræshegn der præger landskabet. Der har været en stadig udvikling i opbygningen af løvtræshegnene fra enkeltrækkede rønne eller tjørnehegn til 7 rækkede hegn med en stor variation af træer og buske.
Som navnet viser, er disse hegn først og fremmest plantet for at skabe læ og primært til dyrkede marker. Som årene er gået har det vist sig, at læbælterne også har en vigtig indflydelse på mange dyr og fugles livsmuligheder. Derfor kan hegnene med fordel opbygges på en anden måde, end de traditionelt er.
