Influence of Fiber Deviation on Strength of Thin Birch (Betula pendula Roth.) Veneers. [PDF]
The currently pursued implementation of wood into novel high performance applications such as automotive parts require knowledge about the material behaviour including ultimate strength. Previous research has shown that fiber deviation seems to be the dominating factor influencing the strength of thin veneers. This study aims to further investigate and

Light-modulation of bark photosynthesis in birch (Betula pendula Roth.)
Bark photosynthesis has been shown to be an effective mechanism for stem-internal refixation of respiratory CO . In young birch trees (Betula pendula Roth.) this function is clearly modulated by the prevailing light intensity regime.

Hormesis and Paradoxical Effects of Drooping Birch (Betula pendula Roth) Parameters Under Motor Traffic Pollution. [PDF]
Various plant indexes are used or recommended for bioindication. However, the nonmonotonic dose–response dependences (hormesis and paradoxical effects) of these indexes are insufficiently explored upon exposure to pollution. We studied the dependences of these Betula pendula indexes on the intensity of motor traffic pollution.

Individual tree mortality of silver birch (Betula pendula Roth) in Estonia [PDF]
The functioning of complex forest ecosystems is intimately related to their structural properties. Tree mortality is a major driver of forest stand dynamics and therefore plays an important role in the formation of forest structure.
