Forest stand information


Three forest stands
Stand dynamics stages during succession.

A forest stand is a contiguous community of trees sufficiently uniform in composition, structure, age, size, class, distribution, spatial arrangement, condition, or location on a site of uniform quality to distinguish it from adjacent communities.[1]

A forest is a "collection of stands" also utilizing the practices of forestry.[2] Stand level modelling is a type of modelling in the forest sciences in which the main unit is a forested stand.
