Effect of Drying Method on the Permeability Coefficient of Oak Wood (Quercus infactoria) [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Wood and Paper Industries, 2014
In this study, the effect of drying method on the permeability coefficient of the oak wood (Quercus infectoria Oliv) was studied. Freshly-cut logs of oak were prepared from Oureman, the east area of Kourdistan in Iran. Then, boards with nominal thickness

Plasticity in parental care: Interspecific competitor cues shape biparental cooperation in a burying beetle

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1358-1371, August 2026.
Our study contributes to our understanding of the effects of interspecific competition in species with biparental care where male and female parents must somehow coordinate their response to interspecific competition. Abstract Interspecific competition is an important evolutionary driver of many species' life histories and behaviours, arising wherever ...

Moisture state and bending properties of Japanese larch (Larix kaempferi) boxed-heart timbers dried by high-temperature kiln-drying and stored under different conditions

open access: yesDrewno
The high-temperature setting (HTS) method is a kiln-drying method in which boxed-heart (BH) timbers are rapidly dried at high temperatures and low relative humidity.

The loss of an Indigenous‐maintained She‐Oak woodland in southeast Australia

open access: yesGeographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2026.
A 2600‐year multi‐proxy palaeoecological record (pollen, charcoal, and sediment) from Balfour Swamp, east Gippsland, reveals the persistence of an open, grassy She‐Oak woodland maintained by GunaiKurnai. This vegetation community, resilient to climatic variability and fire, was lost following the disruption of Aboriginal land management and replaced by

Conjugated Heat and Mass Transfer in Convective Drying in Compact Wood Kilns: A System Approach

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2013
Drying is a required operation in timber manufacturing industries. Most drying processes utilise convective kilns, which involve coupling between transient heat and mass (moisture content) transfer in solids and convection in a flowing medium.

Soil‐Applied Silicon Does Not Affect the Performance of Aphis craccivora on Cowpea Genotypes

open access: yesEntomological Research, Volume 56, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is an important crop in tropical regions, where infestations of the black aphid, Aphis craccivora Koch (Hemiptera: Aphididae), can significantly reduce productivity. Silicon (Si) fertilization has been proposed as a strategy to enhance plant resistance to herbivores, although its effectiveness varies among plant ...

QUALIDADE DA SECAGEM CONVENCIONAL CONJUNTA DA MADEIRA DE CLONES DE TRÊS ESPÉCIES DE Eucalyptus sp.

open access: yesCiência Florestal, 2015
The Brazilian industry commonly dries different species of eucalypt in a same load because of the difficulty of identifying the species, hybrids and clones, and also by optimizing the use of the kiln.
