Indicators of forest site productivity may exhibit considerable spatial and temporal variability that should be considered in sustainable forest management. A review of spatial and temporal variation in site productivity suggests a hierarchical procedure for the estimation of forest site productivity including site mapping, unthinned reference stands, and adaptive modelling. The review also indicates a need to re-define traditional measurement procedures to achieve a contemporary and rational statistical basis for the estimation of site productivity.
