The First density, for the Earth, was when the planet only supported vegetation.

Lack of oxygen and poor drainage in compacted soil restrict its ability to support vegetation.

As well as removing an area that could support vegetation, this also damages a natural drainage characteristics.

The island was small, not much more than a quarter of a mile at its widest point, and supported only sparse vegetation.

After a rain, or in the presence of a well, these outcroppings may support vegetation.

The hard rock wouldn't support larger vegetation, and the canopies of surrounding trees shaded but didn't cover the sky.

A sandy rim on the southeast side of the lake supports very little vegetation.

After the process, the cleaned soil can support other vegetation.

Such damage to the soil's structure can cause a number of problems that will restrict its ability to support new vegetation.

It adds that the island is rocky and "supports minimal vegetation".
