Volatile compounds in Douglas-fir logs cut during different seasons

Purpose

To establish a relationship between volatiles emitted from downed logs and the attack of ambrosia beetles. The study plan calls for the establishment of two log treatments in the fall. In fall, winter ,spring, and summer six logs with live ploem will b

Bar code feasibility study

Purpose

This study will be done to determine how well log design bar code tags withstand the rigors of the yarding process. 50 to 100 logs will be tagged with 3 tags being applied to each log; one on each face and one on the side near an end for a total 150 to 30
