Definition from
New Mexico State University:
A harvest and regeneration technique removing all the trees (regardless of size) on an area. Clearcutting is commonly used with shade-intolerant species such as Douglas fir or lodgepole pine, which require full sunlight to reproduce and grow well. Clearcutting produces an even-aged stand of trees.

Kahlschlagwirtschaft
Clear-cut system:
The clear-cut harvest is sometimes used in the central hardwood region woodlands. In this type of harvest all the trees in a stand are removed. The clear-cut harvest is usually prescribed only when species type conversions are desired. Compared to selection harvest, clear-cut harvests frequently result in more satisfactory regeneration of desirable shade-intolerant tree species, but this asset is often overshadowed by the much greater length of time that the tracts will benefit larger forestland owners.
