Wood Density Variations in Thirteen Canadian Tree Species
Wood density variations were determined for four softwoods and nine hardwoods of western Canada. Multiple-range test indicated significant (P < 0.05) differences for the majority of the multiple comparisons made among species. The mean wood densities varied slightly to significantly from the dens...

Summary: | Wood density variations were determined for four softwoods and nine hardwoods of western Canada. Multiple-range test indicated significant (P < 0.05) differences for the majority of the multiple comparisons made among species. The mean wood densities varied slightly to significantly from the density means of adjoining regions and were highest for black spruce (18.2%). Correlations were also obtained between wood density and other variables. |
