Excerpt from The Scientific Basis for Silvicultural and Management Decisions in the National Forest System
Release is a type of intermediate cutting that resembles thinning but is used to regulate species composition or improve the growth and quality of a young stand up to sapling size. Release cuttings often involve removing dominant trees of poor quality or less desirable species that are limiting the development of young growth. Release is also a term used to note the removal or control of competing vegetation other than trees to improve forest stand development and growth.
