| tree species |
| Plant species with a ligneous, upright stem, which grows to a height of at least 5 m if undisturbed (according to WT and LdF). In the NFI only tree species that are listed in the NFI Field Manual are differentiated. Some of them are grouped into the 10 most important tree species (main tree species). [D] Baumart Pflanzenart mit verholztem, aufrechtem Stamm, die bei ungestörtem Wachstum eine Höhe von mehr als 5 m erreicht (nach WT und LdF). Im LFI werden nur die in der Aufnahmeanleitung LFI (S. 78/79) aufgeführten Baumarten unterschieden. Diese werden z.T. zu den 10 wichtigsten Baumarten (Hauptbaumarten) zusammengefasst. [F] essence Espèce végétale présentant un tronc lignifié et vertical qui peut atteindre, si sa croissance n'est pas perturbée, plus de 5m de haut (selon WT et LdF). L'IFN ne différencie que les essences mentionnées dans le manuel d'instruction IFN (p. 78/79). Les dix plus importantes d'entre elles forment les essences principales. [I] specie arborea Specie vegetale con un fusto legnoso, eretto e in grado di raggiungere, in condizioni di accrescimento indisturbate, più di 5 m di altezza (da WT e LdF). Nell'IFN vengono distinte solo le specie arboree riportate nelle Istr. IFN (p. 78/79). Queste vengono in parte riunite nelle 10 specie arboree più importanti (specie arboree principali). |
