          • Definition(s)

          • Example sentence(s)
            • The shelterwood system involves several steps: control of competing understory vegetation, the shelterwood selection and final harvest cut. - Warnell School of Forest Resources
            • The increased interest in shelterwoods for regeneration of spruce has led to an interest in how harvester productivity in shelterwood cuttings compares to productivity in clear felling. - Journal of Forest Engineering
            • Forests can be regenerated by removing all but the best 40 to 60 trees and cutting the smaller, more poorly formed trees in what is called a shelterwood cut. When scattered large trees are left in a shelterwood cut, some tree species which are intermediate shade-tolerant trees such as northern red oak are favored. - Virginia Department of Forestry
