Relationship Between Specific Gravity and Percentage of Summerwood in Wide-Ringed, Second-Growth Douglas-Fir

Creator:

Smith, Diana M.

Abstract:

For the sample of wide-ringed Douglas-fir discussed in this report, the relationship between specific gravity and percentage of summerwood is linear over a range of 16 to 60 percent summerwood content of the annual ring. The specific gravity of the summerwood and springwood portions of 96 dissected annual rings is...
