Abstract:The establishment of forest plantations in boreal zones in Mongolia is important for wood production as well as carbon dioxide fixation. The present study aims to elucidate the juvenile wood properties (basic density, modulus of elasticity [MOE], modulus of rupture [MOR], and compressive strength parallel to grain) of plantation-grown Pinus sylvestris to promote the establishment of plantations. In addition, the effect of the radial growth rate on wood properties was also evaluated using a linear mixed-effects… Show more
