Summary[edit]

Description
English: Continuous cover forestry ; This image shows an 85 year old stand of Douglas fir in the process of transformation to a continuous cover forest. Small gaps created in the canopy are enabling a wide variety of species to regeneration and develop in the understorey. A continual cycle of interventions is leading to a progressively more irregular structure, through time.
Français : Cette image montre un peuplement de sapins Douglas âgé de 85 ans en cours d'évolution vers une forêt hétérogène et diversifiée, qui pourra être gérée à la manière Pro Silva (en couverture continue, c'est à dire par bouquets ou pied à pied, sans aucune coupe rase). Les petites trouées (chablis ou coupes) créées dans la canopée permettent à une grande variété d'espèces de se régénérer spontanément et de se développer dans le sous-étage. Un cycle continu d'interventions imitant les trouées naturelles conduira à une structure progressivement plus irrégulière au fil du temps, réputée plus stable et résiliente face aux aléas climatiques et protégeant au mieux le sol (ici sur pente.
