| edge |
the zone or ecotone where two habitat types come together, for example, open land and woodland, or forest stands of different ages or species. Both habitat types contribute plants and animals to the transition zone, making edge more valuable to wildlife than either habitat type alone. Creating substantial edge during a timber harvest can also reduce the visual impact of the harvest.
