Abstract

Det finns en rad satt att beskriva gallringsformen. Ofta används begreppet gallringskvot i dessa sammanhang utan
att närmare ange vilken metod eller definition som använts for att beräkna den. Detta kan lätt leda till att
missuppfattningar uppstår. Denna studie belyser olika definitioners känslighet for bland annat beståndsstruktur,
gallringsform och stickvägsavstånd. Studien innehåller dessutom en jämforelse mellan olika metoder att mäta och
uppskatta gallringskvoten i ett bestånd. Slutsatsen är att gallringskvotens användbarhet och tillförlitlighet i många
sammanhang är starkt begränsad.

Thinnings can be described in many different ways. Frequently, however, the "thinning quotient" is used as a
descriptor. This quotient is usually expressed as the ratio between a mean diameter of the trees extracted and the
trees left, although many definitions exist. In this study, the appropriateness of different definitions is evaluated
through thinning simulations, sampling simulations, and analyses of the impact of strip-roads. The conclusion is
that the value of using thinning quotients as descriptors seems to be limited.
