摘要: A stem and branch growth model, TreeBLOSSIM, has been developed for Pinus radiata D. Don that predicts the location diameter of branches adjacent to on an annual basis. Research is under way extend model predict wood properties in three dimensions: vertically with increasing tree height, radially age, circumferentially around a ring. Four studies were carried out examine role may have influencing 3-dimensional variability properties. These illustrated how fibres arranged vicinity branch, cross-sectional shape varied through cluster branches; they indicated internode below be influenced by branches.
