Italian term

regolare

Italian to English Science Agriculture landscaping
Due boschetti, uno regolare di diverse varietà di Kaki e uno libero di Ulmus minor creano zone ombreggiate ma trasparenti.

Is this:

1.-regolare = all of one type of tree vs. libero = free-growing (in the sense of multiple types) (but this seems to contradict what's in the text;
2.-regolare = bounded by a delineated area; of a set shape or form vs. libero = free-growing (in the sense that it has not be delimited by a set, geometrical boundary, but is free to grow in any direction, or is given initially (as this is a park that has just been created, and thus landscaped by the commissioned architects) a sort of 'formless' form: no particular shape or form to it, an amorphous area.
3.-Tertio quid???

Thanks!

monoculture plantation


A bosco regolare is one where the trees are mostly single-species (fully grown trees will be same size). In English this is a monoculture plantation or single-species forest
A bosco irregolare is one of mixed tree species and height – a mixed-species forest
It’s explained in Italian in detail here: http://www.lfi.ch/spaziergang/spaz6_3-it.php

Monoculture plantation is used for fruit trees such as kaki – also orchard

Monoculture is also used for a stand of trees planted for forestry exploitation (logging) such as Monoculture tree plantation or Monoculture tree farm

Single-species is used for wild forests

Boschi multiformi
• 1 Fustaia regolare
• 2 Fustaia disetanea-irregolare
• 3 Bosco rado (soprassuoli aperti)
• 4 Arbusteto
• 5 Ceduo sotto fustaia
• 6 Ceduo

Fustaia regolare
Le fustaie sono boschi che si rinnovano per via gamica, cioè da seme e non da polloni.
Al contrario delle foreste pluviali tropicali, i nostri boschi tendono per natura verso una struttura uniforme e monostratificata. Anche nell'attuale bosco gestito domina la fustaia regolare con i suoi differenti stadi di sviluppo.


Fustaia disetanea
Le fustaie a struttura disetanea [ted. Plenterwald] (8%), una mescolanza stratificata di alberi giovani, medi e vecchi su piccola scala, sono ottenibili solo attraverso una gestione mirata. Nel caso del bosco protettivo, la forma di gestione a fustaia disetanea ha per scopo una rinnovazione costante e senza interruzione.
Fustaia irregolare
Anche le fustaie irregolari (8%) presentano uno sviluppo in strati misti e similitudini con la struttura disetanea. La struttura verticale, però, non è stratificata in modo continuo, bensì per piani.
La mancanza di un singolo termine che traduca Plenterwald in italiano denota la quasi totale assenza di questo bosco a Sud delle Alpi e nel resto della penisola italiana. Per contro, la gestione a Plenterwald è praticata nei boschi sloveni, del Giura francese e della Foresta Nera. In Svizzera, la maggior diffusione si situa nell'Emmental e nel Canton Neuchâtel; in Italia, si trovano alcune fustaie disetanee nel Trentino Alto-Adige [nota del traduttore].

The proportions of forests in southern Sweden with the most common single or mixed species compositions were determined using the data provided by the Swedish National Forest Inventory. Forests including a second tree species with a basal area of at least 10 per cent, in addition to the most abundant species, were defined as mixed forests. The most common compositions were spruce, pine/spruce, pine and spruce/birch. Overall, mixed forest was more common than single-species forest, and approximately two-thirds of both spruce-dominated and pine-dominated forests included a sufficient proportion of other tree species to be classified as mixed forests, according to the above definition.

In some areas the suppression of forest fires for hundreds of years has resulted in large single aged and single species forest stands.
