Weathering of wood in a region of acid rain was performed by the test which thin veneers of Sitka spruce were exposed to outdoor weathering for a total of 18 weeks, with a daily soaking for 30 minutes in acidified water in the pH range 2~5.6. The weathering measured by weight loss and loss in maximum failure load in tension was accelerated by the increase in the acidity of acidified water and in the period of outdoor exposure. It was also shown that the weathering was accelerated even with low acidic conditions in the case of long exposure period, although the weathering was rapidly accelerated with high acidic conditions. When compared the degree of weight loss with that of loss in failure load by weathering, the latter was much greater. From the results of this research, it could be concluded that at pH 4.0 or below of precipitation, the acceleration of weathering of exterior wood would become serious problems, which would be caused deterioration in performance of exterior wood.

This study was conducted to elucidate the mid-growth of Norway spruce at the age of 27 and select the superior provenances in Korea. Growth performance of twenty-four provenances from Germany and Rumania were investigated in four plantations. Significant differences were found in growth (height, DBH, volume) with plantations. Maximum growth were detected on plantation Chuncheon which located in most northern area, and minimum growth were detected on plantation Wanju located in most southern area. The rank of height in provenances has fluctuated, but superior/inferior groups have been almost fixed. 840-23, 840-10, 840-19 in Germany, G1-64-57, G1-64-54 in Rumania proved excellent provenances. Height in early stage positively correlated with that in late stage. The growth was positively correlated with latitude and altitude of plantations, but negatively correlated with temperature.

본 연구는 양생방법과 양생온도에 따른 소나무, 낙엽송, 북양가문비나무 변재부에서 CCA와 CCFZ의 정착특성을 조사하기 위하여 수행되었다. 방부제 유효성분의 정착 정도는 6가크롬의 3가크롬으로 환원율에 의해 결정하였으며, 연구결과를 토대로 수종, 방부제, 양생방법, 양생온도의 조합별 적정 양생기간을 예측하였다. 양생방법에 관계없이 양생온도가 높을수록 방부제 유효성분들의 정착이 크게 가속되었으며, 건조양생에 비하여 비건조양생시 정착이 빨리 진행되었다. 수종간의 양생속도는 양생방법과 방부제의 종류에 관계없이 전반적으로 소나무>낙엽송>북양가문비나무 순으로 빨랐고, 소나무를 대상으로 비교한 방부제간의 정착속도는 CCA 2호>CCA 3호>CCFZ의 순이었다. 양생방법에 관계없이 양생온도와 양생 소요기간간의 상관이 매우 우수하여 처리재 양생장소의 대기온도에 의해 수종과 방부제의 조합별 적정 양생기간을 거의 완벽하게 예측할 수 있었다.

This study investigates the relationship between ultrasonic velocity and density in the direct method, the effect of distance between transducers in the indirect method, and the difference between the direct and indirect methods with transducers placed at a distance of 200 mm in nondestructive ultrasonic testing of spruce lumber. The direct method using 54 kHz ultrasonic transducers was applied to two planes, namely, radial section (LR) and tangential section (LT) of samples. The indirect method measurements were taken using the same transducers. Two velocities were measured at the top and bottom of the LT plane and at the two sides of the LR plane; the two values for each plane were averaged. The relationship between density and ultrasound velocity in the direct method demonstrated a positive correlation between the two variables. The difference between the two planes, LT and LR, was not statistically significant. Moreover, the distance between the transducers in the indirect method affected ultrasound velocity, with the ultrasonic velocity increasing as the distance between the transducers became larger. A transducer distance of 200 mm yielded a close approximation of the direct method results with a ratio of 0.87. Finally, no statistical evidence of a difference between the two planes in the indirect method was found. If the direct method, which requires access to two surfaces, is impractical, the indirect method can be applied.

본 연구는 CCA 2호를 이용한 소나무, 낙엽송, 북양가문비나무 원추가공재의 가압 방부처리시 처리변수가 처리도(방부제의 침투깊이와 보유량)에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 수행되었다. 처리변수로는 전배기 시간(30, 45, 또는 60분)과 최대 가압력 (8.5, 10.5, 또는 14.0 kg/$cm^2$)이 조사되었으며, 가압은 목재 내로 방부제가 더 이상 주입되지 않는 refusal point까지 지속되었다. 수종에 관계없이 전배기 시간의 30분 이상 연장은 처리도에 영향을 미치지 않았다. 그리고 가압력의 증가는 방부제 침투깊이에는 영향을 미치지 못하였으나 보유량에는 영향을 미쳤다. 전반적으로 볼 때, 방부제의 침투깊이는 소나무>북양가문비나무${\geq}$낙엽송의 순이었는데 변재폭이 넓은 소나무는 적용된 압력에 관계없이 사용환경구분 H5 지역에 사용할 수 있는 CCA 처리재의 최소 방부제 침투깊이를 만족하였다. 그러나 변재폭이 좁은 낙엽송과 북양가문비나무는 방부제 침투깊이가 깊지 않아 자상처리 등 처리도 개선을 위한 전처리가 필요하였다. 소나무의 보유량은 가압력의 영향을 받지 않았으나, 난주입수종인 낙엽송과 북양가문비나무의 경우 가압력 14.0 kg/$cm^2$ 에서는 유의성이 인정되는 보유량의 증가가 관찰되었다. 방부제의 목재내 침투가 종료되는 시점인 refusal point에 대한 처리조건의 영향은 불분명하였으나, 가압 소요시간은 북양가문비나무>낙엽송>소나무 순으로 변재율이 높을수록 전반적으로 가압 소요시간이 단축됨을 알 수 있었다.

Seasonal distribution of ectomycorrhizal associations in various types of forest in a boreal forest in Manitoba. Canada was investigated. Alsohe relationship between ectomycorrhizal growth and pine pollen nutrients was examined. In four different forest stands, ectomycorrhizas tended to be lower in the spring than in the summer and fall samples. In addition. a mature jack pine (Pinus banksiana) stand showed higher mycorrhizal activities than a young jack pine stand. Growth of Suillus brevipes hyphae wa ts stimulated by additions of pollen representing mean pollen deposition in Mistik Creek study area after 30 and 70 days of growth with dextrose availability. This result suggests that the peak ectomycorrhizal activity is followed by pollen deposition in the study region and therefore, addition of pine and spruce pollen in early or middle of June in the boreal forest can be an important seasonal nutrient source for ectomycorrhizal growth.

The anatomical structure of fusiform ray was examined by scanning electron microscopy (and microscopic images were analysed by image analyser) to explain the differences in radial fluid uptake between the extremes in the radial treatment data, i.e. between the selected trees of QCI (Queen Charlotte Islands in Rhondda, South Wales) and SO (South Oregon in Dalby, North-East England) planted in the UK. The ray structure of these two seed origins was examined microscopically and different patterns of ray composition were observed. The most important anatomical features influencing radial permeability were the nature of fusiform ray, and the condition of the resin canals, epithelial cells and intercellular spaces in particular.

The water status of the leaves of several evergreen plants was investigated in order to discuss the geopgraphical distribution of them. Relastionship between relative water content and water potential of the leaves showed linear decrease for evergreen conifers but exponential decrease for Korean box tree (Buxus microphylla var. koreana). On the basis of the leaf water potential, the water status of the conifers during wintering was distinctly divided into three periods; hardening, cold resistance and dehardening, but lacking in those periods for the Korean box tree, where the status continously decreased. In the cold resistance the leaf water potentials were -23 bar for both spruce (Picea jezoensis) and yew (Taxus cuspidata). From these results and threshold temperature at beginning of hardening, distribution of the conifers was explained that in order of the red pine, the Korean white pine, the yew and the spruce the distribution could be extended at higher altitudes and in more northward areas, whereas the distribution of the Korean box tree was restricted to the lowland of temperate zone.

On nitrobenzene oxidation of aspen, spruce, and knauf wood meals gave rise to vanilline, syrigaldehyde, p-hydroxybenzoaldehyde, vanillic acid, and other minor oxidation products. The phenolic aldehydes (p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, vanilline, and syringaldehyde) are derived from oxidative degradation of the corresponding 4-hydroxyphenylpropane units and their ethers. The lignin content of knauf wood meals was different as the concentration of NaOH solution and cooking temperature. The lignin contents of aspen, spruce, and knauf wood meals were decreased as laccase treatment. The laccase caused C-oxidation, demethylation, cleavage in phenolic groups and C-C cleavage in syrigyl structures.
