3.1.7. Intensive treatment (intense)
Fire risk was reduced to low categories on 100% of
the landscape for the fourth and ®fth decade (Fig. 10).
The proportion of stands in high-risk categories was
small (10%) in the ®rst decade and had entirely
disappeared by the second decade. The ®re risk to
the individual reserve stands varied in the ®rst year (5,
3, and 4 for stands A, B, and C, respectively) in all
other years the risk was 2.
The advantage of the minimized risk to the reserve
stands is offset by the loss of desired structural qualities.
However, thinning from below would leave the
largest trees, and for cases in which ample regeneration
existed, some understory may persist.
