What is a "windbreak"?
A windbreak is a barrier, usually made of trees, shrubs, or fences, designed to reduce the impact of wind on a particular area. It is commonly used to protect crops, buildings, or outdoor spaces from strong winds. Windbreaks can also help reduce soil erosion, provide shelter for livestock, and create a more comfortable environment by blocking cold or harsh winds. They are often planted in rows or strategically placed to direct wind away from sensitive areas. Windbreaks can be natural or man-made, depending on the desired effect.
Example
The farmers planted rows of trees along the edge of the field to act as a windbreak and protect their crops.
Farmáři zasadili řady stromů podél okraje pole, aby sloužily jako větrolam a chránily jejich plodiny.
The house was surrounded by a tall windbreak to shield it from the harsh winds coming from the north.
Dům byl obklopen vysokým větrolamem, aby ho chránil před silnými větry přicházejícími ze severu.
