    • Assessing Site Quality and Tree Growth
      Module 2
      Synopsis: Assessing Site Quality and Tree Growth

      This module introduces participants to practical approaches for assessing forest site productivity and tree growth. Participants will explore how tree height and age relate to Site Index (SI), including how reference age is used to compare the productivity of different forest sites.

      The module also examines when Site Index is appropriate and when other indicators, such as Site Form and diameter growth, may provide useful information, particularly in complex forest conditions. Through practical activities, participants will learn to interpret growth information and select appropriate indicators for assessing site productivity. By the end of the module, participants will be able to explain key site productivity indicators and apply appropriate approaches to assess forest site quality and tree growth.

    • 🎯 LEARNING OUTCOMES (LO)
      Three learning outcomes are expected to be achieved at the end of this course:
      LO1
      Interpret Site Index (SI) using dominant tree height and reference age.
      C3 β€’ APPLY
      LO2
      Differentiate appropriate site productivity indicators based on forest conditions and available data.
      C3 β€’ APPLY
      LO3
      Apply site productivity indicators to interpret tree growth and select an appropriate assessment method.
      C3 β€’ APPLY
      🌱 Course outcome: Master Site Index calculations, select suitable productivity metrics, and apply data-driven assessment methods to monitor forest growth effectively.

    • CONGRATULATIONS!
      You have successfully completed Module 2 – Assessing Site Quality and Tree Growth. Hopefully, you now understand how tree height and age can be used to assess Site Index, and how to choose suitable indicators for evaluating forest growth and productivity.
      Next, you will learn how to match tree species with site conditions in Module 3 – Site Suitability.
      Good luck!
