DOI: 10.1007/s10853-017-0850-y
Abstract: Most wooden structures for outdoor applications require repetitive maintenance operations to protect the surfaces from adverse effects of weathering. One-sided surface modification of boards with a relatively fast charring process has the potential to increase… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2020.118411
Abstract: Abstract Deadwood decomposition plays a crucial role in global carbon and nutrient cycles. Factors controlling deadwood decomposition at local scales could also have strong effects at broader scales. We tested how trait variation within stems… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/treephys/tpac113
Abstract: Stored water in inner tissues influences the plant water economy, which might be particularly relevant for trees facing increasing dry conditions due to climate change. We studied the water storages in the inner bark and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0204212
Abstract: During industrial wood drying, extractives migrate towards the wood surfaces and make the material more susceptible to photo/biodegradation. The present work provides information about the distribution, quantity and nature of lipophilic substances beneath the surface… read more here.
