Performance of pine sawflies under elevated tropospheric ozone.
Silva Fennica, 1996 Concentration of the phytotoxic air pollutant, ozone (O) is continually increasing in the lower layer of the troposphere. The purpose of this study was to compare performance of pine sawflies on Scots pine ( L.) seedlings in ambient and future levels of ...

Regional height growth models for Scots pine in Poland
Scientific Reports, 2020 Site productivity remains a fundamental concern in forestry as a significant driver of resource availability for tree growth. The site index (SI) reflects the overall impact of all environmental factors that determine tree height growth and is the most ...

Species interactions under climate change in mixed stands of Scots pine and pedunculate oak
, 2020 Mixed-species forests have become widely studied in the recent years because of their potential to mitigate risks associated with climate change. However, their growth dynamics are often difficult to predict because species interactions vary with ...

Penetration and effectiveness of micronized copper in refractory wood species [PDF]
, 2016 The North American wood decking market mostly relies on easily treatable Southern yellow pine (SYP), which is being impregnated with micronized copper (MC) wood preservatives since 2006. These formulations are composed of copper (Cu) carbonate particles (

The cracking of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) cones. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2022 Pine cones show functionally highly resilient, hygroscopically actuated opening and closing movements, which are repeatable and function even in millions of years old, coalified cones. Although the functional morphology and biomechanics behind the individual seed scale motions are well understood, the initial opening of the cone, which is often ...

Effects of phenotypic selection on height-diameter ratio of Norway spruce and Scots pine in Sweden
Silva Fennica, 2018 Genetically improved Norway spruce ( (L.) Karst.) and Scots pine ( L.) are extensively used in operational Swedish forestry plantations. However, relatively little is known about the stem slenderness (height-diameter ratio) of genetically improved ...
