Research paper thumbnail of Longitudinal growth strain as a log and wood quality predictor for plantation-grown Eucalyptus nitens sawlogs

Wood Science and Technology, 2011

Abstract Peripheral longitudinal growth strain (LGS) was measured on a total of 81, 22-year-old p... more Abstract Peripheral longitudinal growth strain (LGS) was measured on a total of 81, 22-year-old pruned Eucalyptus nitens trees from five thinning treatments in a plantation thinning trial in Tasmania. Growth strain data were gathered at breast height on each tree using the ...

Research paper thumbnail of Improved Methods for Achieving Traceability of Tree and Log Identities in Timber Processing Studies

ABSTRACT We successfully tracked the identities of more than 550 selected 13-year-old trees from ... more ABSTRACT We successfully tracked the identities of more than 550 selected 13-year-old trees from a Eucalyptus nitens (Deane & Maiden) progeny trial through tree felling, harvesting of butt logs, and sawmill processing to finished sawn boards using a two-stage approach. To track log identity from the standing tree to the log yard, we used a numbered under-bark wooden identification plug, glued into a hole drilled in the trunk prior to harvesting. To track tree identity for individual sawn boards, log-end templates with corresponding tree identification numbers were glued to the log ends before milling. Materials and methods used withstood harvesting and debarking, log transportation, milling, air and kiln drying, steam reconditioning, and final machining. A second study confirmed the success of the under-bark plug method to successfully track 548 selected standing trees through harvesting and transportation to the mill.
