Expanding markets for Oregon White Oak

Purpose

To detemine if it is possible to expand the current market for Oregon White Oak using exsisting softwood mills; determine the lumber recovery rate by log grade; determine the changes required to saw acceptable OWO lumber in a sawmill in which the primary

Effects of compression wood on hydraulic conductivity in Douglas-fir branches

Purpose

Compression wood forms on the undersides of branches to support their weight against gravity. I have found in previous hydraulic work that this compression wood conducts very little water. In this study, I plan to measure hydraulic conductivity both wit
