Diagnostic Characteristics: No Data Available
Rationale for Nominal Species or Physiognomic Features: No Data Available
Classification Comments: Long-rotation plantations or woody restoration plantings with an irregular structure and a largely spontaneous ground layer are placed in 1.A ~Tropical Forest & Woodland Subclass (S17)$$ or 1.B. ~Temperate & Boreal Forest & Woodland Subclass (S15)$$ as the vegetation structure and composition may be largely native or naturalized. But in their early stages of development, especially if planted in rows and the understory is strongly manipulated, they may better fit within this class.
