woodland
woodland 1. A vegetation
community that includes mature trees, which are usually spaced more widely and so are more spreading in form that
forest trees (i.e. their crowns are not touching and they do not form a closed canopy). Woodland is often defined as having 40 per cent canopy closure or less. Between the trees, grass,
heath, or
scrub communities typically develop, giving a park-like landscape.
2. A general term for a wooded landscape, often used generally, e.g. broad-leaved woodland, or to describe a number of separate wooded areas, e.g. the Estate Woodlands. Colloquially, the terms ‘forest’ and ‘woodland’ are often used interchangeably in Britain.
