• Models for predicting microfibril angle variation in Scots pine (2012, background): “Competing hypotheses have been proposed to explain radial variation in wood properties (Lachenbruch et al. 2011).”
• Comparison of teak wood properties according to forest management: short versus long rotation (2018, background): “The juvenile core in trees is reported to be of lower density, lower stiffness (MOE) and strength (MOR), higher grain angle, higher longitudinal shrinkage, and higher incidence of reaction wood (Evans et al. 2000; Koubaa et al. 2005; Clark et al. 2006; Adamopoulos et al. 2007; Gryc et al. 2011; Lach”
• Moving beyond simple linear allometric relationships between tree height and diameter (2011, background): “Increases in the modulus of elasticity provide greater stability under both self weight and external lateral forces allowing trees to obtain greater H/D (Lachenbruch et al., 2011).”
• Models for predicting wood density variation in Scots pine (2014, background): “The evolution of wood density within tree stems varies according to species, following typical radial and longitudinal patterns that are strongly correlated with tree age, size and growth (Lachenbruch et al., 2011).”
