Natural weathering on coated tropical woods

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
Abstract Teak and pine are common wood species in Indonesia. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the performance of the coating layer in these wood species after six months natural weathering. The durability on natural weathering is evaluated due to microbial disfigurement (fungi or algae), checking and cracking, whereas ...

Is interlocked grain an adaptive trait for tropical tree species in rainforest? [PDF]

, 2009
Many trees in tropical rain forest exhibit interlocked grain. This phenomenon was observed, using a splitting method, on 10 trees from different genera in French Guiana. There were rather strong variations between and within trees. Different indexes were

Climate seasonality limits leaf carbon assimilation and wood productivity in tropical forests [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2016
The seasonal climate drivers of the carbon cycle in tropical forests remain poorly known, although these forests account for more carbon assimilation and storage than any other terrestrial ecosystem. Based on a unique combination of seasonal pan-tropical

Tropic Responses of Fungi to Wood Volatiles [PDF]

Microbiology, 1983
SUMMARY: Sapwood blocks of lime (Tilia vulgaris) and pine (Pinus sylvestris) placed to one side of growing colonies of several wood decay fungi markedly influenced their hyphal extension patterns, particularly by causing positive or negative tropic responses.
