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

Heartwood Development in Douglas-fir

Purpose

To monitor over the course of a year the relationship between energy reserve materials in the sapwood and phloem, and the quantity of extractives deposited in the newly formed heartwood. Three treatment groups, consisting of 10 trees each, will be create
