STUDIES ON BEECH PULP

Studies on European beech (Fagus sylvatica L

Colour parameters of European beech were measured using CIELab system. 103 logs from 87 trees in 9 sites were cut into boards to study the variations of wood colour parameters. Both site and tree effect on colour were observed. Patterns of red heartwood occurrence were defined. When excepting red heartwood there was still a highly significant effect of site and tree; differences remained after ...

Some Studies on Assessment of Physical Properties of Tamarind Pulp

Tamarind is an economically important multipurpose spice which is grown both as domesticated spice in farmland and as wild in forest lands. Tamarind fruits can be processed in the variety of food products of commercial importance. The knowledge about physical properties of any biomaterial is essential to design its equipment for processing, storage, transportation and value addition. In the pre...

Studies on the Vegetation of Mount Colenso New Zealand 2. the Population Dynamics of Red Beech

The population structure of red beech (Nothofagus fusclI) is described for four forest stands situated at different altitudes on 1\.louot Colenso. Data cn red beech seedling densities and frequency distributions of living and dead tree dir:.meters (d.b.h.) arc presented. Red beech seedlings are shown to be more numerous, and on average larger, en decaying red beech logs than elsewhere. This see...

Influence of ground cover on earthworm communities in an unmanaged beech forest: linear gradient studies

Micro-scale changes in earthworm communities and ground cover types were studied along five transect lines in an unmanaged beech forest (Fontainebleau forest, France). Spatial patterns were interpreted to the light of interactions between earthworm species and forest architecture, ground vegetation and quantity as well as quality of litter. The anecic Lumbricus terrestris was associated with pa...
