| model |
| Image of reality reduced to what is considered as essential. In the NFI, models describe the relationship between measured and derived attributes (e.g. volume function, protection forest model) or the change over time of these attributes, in the form of mathematical formula or logic operations (e.g. increment). [D] Modell Auf die als wesentlich erachteten Wesenszüge reduziertes Abbild der Wirklichkeit. Im LFI als mathematische Formel oder logische Verknüpfung beschriebener Zusammenhang zwischen erhobenen und abgeleiteten Merkmalen (z. B. Volumenfunktion, Schutzwaldmodell) oder der Veränderung derselben (z. B. Zuwachs). [F] modèle Image de la réalité réduite aux composantes jugées essentielles. Dans l'IFN, lien décrit par une formule mathématique ou une liaison logique entre les critères relevés et déduits (p. ex. fonction de volume, modèle de forêts protectrices) ou l'évolution de ces critères (p. ex. accroissement). [I] modello Rappresentazione della realtà semplificata e limitata ai caratteri ritenuti essenziali. Nell'IFN è intesa come formula matematica o relazione logica tra le caratteristiche rilevate e quelle derivate (es. funzioni volumetriche, modello di bosco di protezione) oppure la loro variazione (es. incremento). |

Anl. LFI = Anleitung für die Feldaufnahmen der Erhebung 1993-1995 (Stierlin et al. 1994) - The German, French and Italien plant names were taken mainly from the book Die häufigsten Waldbäume der Schweiz or from the Flora Helvetica
- The English plant names were taken form the internet (swiss web flora, PLANTS Database and Dictionary of Common Names by plantpress.com). The notations and abbreviations were taken from IPNI - The international Plant Names Index.
