| high forest, uniform (even-aged) |
| High forest made up of homogeneous stands, which are delimitable by area and have a layered structure. The trees that constitute the stand (main stand) have similar diameters at breast height and therefore belong to the same stage of stand development. [D] Hochwald, gleichförmiger Hochwald aus homogenen, flächenmässig abgrenzbaren Beständen mit schichtiger Struktur, in denen die bestandesbildenden Bäume (Hauptbestand) ähnliche Brusthöhendurchmesser aufweisen und somit einer Entwicklungsstufe zugeordnet werden können. [F] futaie régulière Futaie composée de peuplements homogènes, de surfaces délimitées, avec une structure uniforme (à une ou plusieurs strates), dans laquelle les arbres formant le peuplement (peuplement principal) présentent des diamètres à hauteur de poitrine semblables et sont donc assimilés au même stade de développement. [I] fustaia regolare Fustaia costituita da popolamenti omogenei, delimitabili spazialmente, con una struttura per piani e nella quale gli alberi di maggior peso (popolamento principale) presentano un diametro a petto d'uomo simile e possono quindi essere attribuiti ad un unico stadio di sviluppo. |
