Evolutionary history shapes variation of wood density of tree species across the world [PDF]
Plant DiversityThe effect of evolutionary history on wood density variation may play an important role in shaping variation in wood density, but this has largely not been tested.

The Tervuren xylarium Wood Density Database (TWDD) [PDF]
Scientific DataWood density is a key plant property, indispensable for estimating forest biomass. Yet, despite tropical regions’ substantial contributions to global tree diversity and carbon cycling, they remain underrepresented in wood density datasets such as the ...

Variation in Growth, Wood Density, and Stem Taper Along the Stem in Self-Thinning Stands of Sassafras tzumu [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Silvicultural practices greatly improve the economic value of wood products from forests. Stem dimensions, wood density, and stem form are closely linked to end-product performance.

Variation in wood density across South American tropical forests [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsWood density is a critical control on tree biomass, so poor understanding of its spatial variation can lead to large and systematic errors in forest biomass estimates and carbon maps.

Gostota lesa - metode določanja in pomen pri razvoju gozdno lesnega biogospodarstva
Acta Silvae et Ligni, 2021 Wood density is an important physical property that can be easily measured and is closely related to many other wood properties. Furthermore, wood density is a good indicator of the usability and applicability of wood in the wood processing, construction

A simple field based method for rapid wood density estimation for selected tree species in Western Kenya [PDF]
, 2020 Wood density is an important variable for accurate quantification of woody biomass and carbon stocks. Conventional destructive methods for wood density estimation are resource intensive, prohibiting their use, limiting the application of approaches that ...

Variability in density of spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst.) wood with the presence of reaction wood
Journal of Forest Science, 2007 The study was aimed to assess the integral value that determines wood properties - wood density at a moisture content of 0% and 12%. The wood density was researched in a sample tree with the presence of reaction compression wood.
