Objective The objective of the concerted action is to devise the basis for a common system of classification of forest sites that can be used alongside existing national, sub-national and local classifications. Specific issues which will be addressed include: - climatic variables to be used to definezones; - use of soil moisture regimes and soil nutient regimes to define forest site types within each climatic zone; - indicator plant species and existing classifications of forest humus forms; - correlation of existing forest site classifications at national, sub-national or local level with the proposed system; - correlation of the proposed system with classifications of native woodland vegetation.
