Bioenergy production has increased significantly in the last decade, and recent legislative efforts such as the discussion draft for the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 and the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007 are expected to encourage even more growth. The growing demand for bioenergy will necessitate production of large quantities of woody biomass and plant residues if it is to be met. However, concerns are being raised as to how increased pressures will affect the sustainability of woody biomass. In order to avoid potential pitfalls and ensure the sustainability of wood-based bioenergy systems, a set of sustainability indicators needs to be developed. Some of these indicators can be based on standards similar to those developed for sustainable forest management, energy balances, greenhouse gas emission reductions, and existing codes and guidelines for biomass harvesting. This article discusses a potential set of sustainability indicators encompassing ecological, economic, and social principles for harvesting woody biomass for bioenergy. The extent to which existing standards and certification systems reflect these indicators is elaborated upon. Methods for making these standards operational are also suggested. 相似文献

Wood quality traits are important to balance the negative decline of wood quality associated with selection for growth attributes in gymnosperm breeding programs. Obtaining wood quality estimates quickly is crucial for successful incorporation in breeding programs.Aims
The aims of this paper are to: (1) Estimate genetic and phenotypic correlations between growth and wood quality attributes, (2) Estimate heritability of the studied traits, and (3) Assess the accuracy of in situ non-destructive tools as a representative of actual wood density.Methods
Wood density (X-ray densitometry), tree height, diameter, volume, resistance drilling, acoustic velocity, and dynamic modulus of elasticity were estimated, along with their genetic parameters, for 1,200, 20-year-old trees from 25 open-pollinated families.Results
Individual tree level heritabilities for non-destructive evaluation attributes were moderate ( $ {\widehat{h}}_i^2=0.37-0.42 $ ), wood density and growth traits were lower ( $ {\widehat{h}}_i^2=0.23-0.35 $ ). Favorable genetic and phenotypic correlations between growth traits, wood density, and non-destructive evaluation traits were observed. A perfect genetic correlation was found between resistance drilling and wood density (r G ?=?1.00?±?0.07), while acoustic velocity and dynamic modulus of elasticity showed weaker genetic correlations with wood density (r G ?=?0.25?±?0.24;?0.46?±?0.21, respectively).Conclusion
This study confirmed that resistance drilling is a reliable predictor of wood density in western larch, while the weak genetic correlations displayed by acoustic velocity and dynamic modulus of elasticity suggest limited dependability for their use as fast in situ wood density assessment methods in this species. 相似文献6.

The wave attenuation function of a Japanese black pine forest was evaluated based on its growth at different initial planting densities (P ini) using the spatially explicit, individual-based, dynamic global vegetation model. The forest dynamics were simulated for 150 years utilizing datasets for tree density and stem diameter at different stand ages obtained in the field. To elucidate the ability of the forest to reduce the wave height $ \eta_{t} $ (m), a long linear wave that propagates on dry ground was assumed. The attenuation of $ \eta_{t} $ (m) was expressed as follows: $ \eta_{t} = \eta_{t0} \exp ( - k_{\text{i}} x) $ , where $ \eta_{t0} $ , x, and k i are the initial wave height (m), the distance (m), and the wave attenuation coefficient (m?1), respectively. The tree destruction caused by the waves was considered in order to estimate k i. The model suggested that there was a peak age that maximized k i and was dependent on $ \eta_{t} $ , and that the maximum k i attained decreased with increasing $ \eta_{t} $ . When P ini was varied widely from 0.5 to 4 m?2, the maximum k i for a relatively low wave height (≤3 m) changed dramatically. For example, when $ \eta_{t} = 2{\text{ m}},$ the maximum k i ranged from 0.008 to 0.031 m?1, depending on P ini. Thus, utilizing a relatively low P ini would be an efficient way of quickly creating a forest capable of sufficient wave attenuation in areas where a relatively high wave height (≥4 m) is expected. It was concluded that regular harvesting and planting would be required to realize the full potential of the coastal forests to attenuate waves, and that tailoring P ini is one of the management options that could be used to establish a wave prevention forest. 相似文献

Wood tracheids are essentially tubular structures but wood cross sections are characterized by large numbers of triple points or junctures of wall segments from three adjacent cells. A symmetric triple point is taken as an approximation to the basic unit of wood structure. This element is analysed as a linearly elastic, isotropic body. It is shown that bending effects enhance the deformations arising from simple strains so that the overall response of the element is anisotropic. The resulting stiffnesses are ordered $$E_L \user2{ > }E_R \user2{ > }G_{LR} \sim G_{LT} \user2{ > }E_T \user2{ > }G_{RT} $$ for what are considered to be fairly typical element geometries. It is shown that for all geometries the longitudinal Youngs modulus is proportional to the volume fraction of cell wall material. 相似文献

A digital image correlation (DIC) method was utilized to measure strain distributed within approximately 0.5 mm of the cutting edge during slow-speed orthogonal cutting of air-dried hinoki (Chamaecyparis obtusa), to clarify the relationships of the strain distribution and cutting conditions, including cutting angle (\(\theta\)) and depth of cut (\(d\)). The strain was measured in 0.04 mm steps, and the measurable minimum strain was approximately 0.08%. Tensile strain of 3% or larger normal to the cutting direction, \({\varepsilon _y}\), tended to extend 0.2 mm or further ahead of the tool when \(\theta \leq 60^\circ\) and \(d \geq 0.1{\text{ mm}}\). This tensile \({\varepsilon _y}\) corresponded to the occurrence of the fore-split in Chip Type I. The tensile \({\varepsilon _y}\) detected along the path of the cutting edge decreased as \(\theta\) and/or \(d\) decreased. Positive shear strain, \({\gamma _{xy}}\), tended to be detected ahead of the tool in Type I. Negative \({\gamma _{xy}}\) tended to be detected ahead of the tool in Type II and III \(\left( {\theta \geq 70^\circ ,\,\,d \geq 0.05{\text{ mm}}} \right)\). These \({\gamma _{xy}}\) values were considered to be related to the elongation and shrinkage of the chip. The study confirmed the usability of the DIC method for the evaluation of cutting conditions and also to classify chip formation into chip types. 相似文献

A timber volume regression model applicable to the state and communal forest area of the federal German state of Rhineland-Palatinate is identified using a combination of airborne laser scanning (ALS)-derived metrics and information from a satellite-based tree species classification map available on the federal state level. As is common in many forest inventory datasets, strong heterogeneity in the ALS data due to different acquisition dates and misclassifications in the tree species classification map had noticeable effects on the regression model’s performance. This article specifically addresses techniques that improve the performance of ordinary least square regression models under such restricting conditions. We introduce a calibration technique to neutralize the effect of misclassifications in the tree species variable that originally caused a residual inflation of 0.05 in adjusted \(R^2\). Incorporating the calibrated tree species information improved the model accuracy by up to 0.07 in adjusted \(R^2\) and suggests the use of such information in forthcoming inventories. We also found that including ALS quality information as categorical variables within the regression model considerably mitigates issues with time lags between the ALS and terrestrial data acquisition and ALS quality variations (increase of 0.09 in adjusted \(R^2\)). The model achieved an adjusted \(R^2\) of 0.48 and a cross-validated root-mean-square error (RMSE\(_{\mathrm{cv}}\)) of 46.7% under incorporation of the tree species and ALS quality information and was thus improved by 0.12 in adjusted \(R^2\) (5% in RMSE\(_{\mathrm{cv}}\)) compared to the simple model only containing ALS height metrics (adjusted \(R^2=0.36\), RMSE\(_{\mathrm{cv}}=51.7\)%). 相似文献

In N-saturated forests nitrate concentrations in seepage water ( $ {\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_3}{^{ - }_{\text{seepage}}} $ ) regularly show high spatial variability even within homogeneous stands. Up to now the reasons of this variability are not fully understood.Aims
The main objective was to identify the crucial parameters that control spatial variability of $ {\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_3}{^{ - }_{\text{seepage}}} $ at the H?glwald site.Methods
We investigated a multitude of parameters (e.g. N turnover, root biomass, soil chemistry, soil physics, stand parameters) and related them to $ {\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_3}{^{ - }_{\text{seepage}}} $ , measured in 40?cm depth with suction cups.Results
A small number of biological parameters (net N mineralization, root distribution, and stand density) explained up to 93?% of the variability of $ {\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_3}{^{ - }_{\text{seepage}}} $ in linear regression models. Net N-mineralization rates in the humus layer and fine root biomass in the upper mineral soil influenced $ {\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_3}{^{ - }_{\text{seepage}}} $ positively. Fine root biomass in deeper soil layers (30?C40?cm depth) and stand density had a negative influence.Conclusion
The rate of net N mineralization in the organic layer is decisive for the nitrate production in the soil. Roots in the upper mineral soil increase $ {\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_3}{^{ - }_{\text{seepage}}} $ by intensive water uptake but excluding nitrate at the same time. The variation of these two parameters is responsible for most of the small-scale variability of $ {\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_3}{^{ - }_{\text{seepage}}} $ . 相似文献17.

The properties of oak heat treated at temperatures of 160–220 °C, oxygen concentrations of 2–10 %, steam pressures of 0.1–0.4 MPa and treatment time of 2–4 h were investigated. Although modulus of elasticity (MOE), modulus of rupture (MOR) and equilibrium moisture content (EMC) of the heat-treated wood (HTW) were reduced, the value of $ \Updelta E^{*} $ was increased, and the dimensional stability [anti-swelling efficiency in radial (ASE-R), anti-humidity efficiency (AHE)] was improved considerably. Six regression equations (temperature, oxygen concentration, steam pressure and time as functions of MOE, MOR, ASE-R, AHE, EMC and $ \Updelta E^{*} $ ) were developed for the estimation and a nonlinear programming model was derived with operation research theory to obtain the most desirable HTW properties under some production constraints. 相似文献

Wood elastic constants are needed to describe the elastic behaviors of wood and be taken as an important design parameter
for wood-based composite materials and structural materials. This paper clarified the relationships between compliance coefficients
and engineering elastic constants combined with orthotropic properties of wood, and twelve elastic constants of Betula platyphylla Suk. were measured by electrical strain gauges. Spreading the adhesive quantity cannot be excessive or too little when the
strain flakes were glued. If excessive, the glue layer was too thick which would influence the strain flakes’ performance,
and if too little, glues plastered were not firm, which could not accurately transmit the strain. Wood as an orthotropic material,
its modulus of elasticity and poisson’s ratios are related by two formulas: μ ij/Ei=μji/Ej and μ ij<(Ei/Ej)1/2. The results showed that the elastic constants of Betula platyphylla Suk. measured by electrical strain gauges were accurate and reliable. The results of shear elastic modulus G
TL and G
LR show a high linear regression correlation coefficient (>0.95) between the reciprocal of elastic modulus MOE
−1 and the square of the ratio of depth to length (h/l)2, which indicate that shear modulus values measured were reliable by three point bending experiment. 相似文献

The distributions of boron in Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica D. Don) sapwood blocks treated with aqueous or methanolic boric acid [B(OH)3] solutions were explored through Raman spectroscopy and prompt gamma-ray analysis (PGA). B(OH)3 was the sole boron species observed in Raman spectra of the wood blocks treated with either solution. Plots of weight gain
of the treated wood blocks versus boron concentration in treatment solutions were found to be linear. The results indicated
that the methanolic solution makes it possible to impregnate wood with much larger amounts of boron than the aqueous solution.
PGA confirmed that B(OH)3 was highly enriched near the end grains of the treated wood blocks. Raman measurements suggested that boron content in the
bulk of the wood block is not as large as expected from the weight gain of the treated wood blocks when an ordinary air-drying
method is used. It was concluded that the aqueous solution impregnates the cell walls of wood with boron more easily than
the methanolic solution.
