Treatability of wood is a function of anatomical properties developed under certain growing conditions. While Scots pine sapwood material normally is considered as easy to impregnate, great variations in treatability can be observed. In order to study anatomical differences in the structural elements of transverse fluid passage, wood material with contrasting treatability has been compared. Ray composition and resin canal network, membrane areas of fenestriform pits in the cross-field as well as dimension and properties of bordered pits were investigated. The results showed large anatomical differences between the two contrasting treatability groups. Refractory Scots pine sapwood samples developed more rays per mm2 tangential section, while they were on average lower in cell numbers than rays found in easily treatable material. Easily treatable material had more parenchyma cells in rays than refractory material. At the same time, a larger membrane area in fenestriform pits in the cross-field was observed in the easily treatable sample fraction. Differences in the composition of resin canal network were not observed. Refractory samples developed on average smaller bordered pit features, with relatively small formed pit apertures compared to the easily treatable samples. In refractory Scots pine sapwood material, the structural elements of fluid passage such as bordered pit dimensions, fenestriform pits in the cross-field and parenchyma cells were altogether developed in smaller dimensions or number. Wood samples from better growing conditions and sufficient water supply showed a better treatability in this study.

A wide range of forest products and industries have been examined in life cycle analyses (LCA). Life cycle data are essential for identifying forestry operations that contribute most to carbon emissions. Forestry can affect net CO2 emissions by changing carbon stocks in biomass, soil and products, by supplying biofuels to replace fossil fuels as well as by establishing new forests. The transport of forest products is crucial to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. We conceptualize the chain from seed production, silviculture, harvesting, and timber transport to the industry as a system. Inputs to the system are energy and fuel, the output represents GHG emissions. The reference functional unit used for the inventory analysis and impact assessment is one cubic meter of harvested timber under bark. GHG emissions from forestry in East Norway were calculated for the production of one such unit delivered to the industry gate in 2010 (cradle-to-gate inventory), showing that timber transport from the forest to the final consumer contributed with more than 50 % to the total GHG emissions. To assess uncertainty of model approaches, the LCA was conducted with two different models, SimaPro and GaBi, both using the Ecoinvent database with data adapted to European conditions.

Når man bruker tre utendørs, i jordkontakt eller i innstallasjoner over bakken, vil trykkimpregnert trevirke beskytte mot sopp- og insektangrep og dermed øke trevirkets levetid. Impregnerte treprodukter til bruk som utvendig kledning, terrassedekk og gjerdestolper kan kjøpes i byggevarehandelen. Hva bør du som huseier vite når du kjøper og bruker impregnert tre?

Tre er nå blitt så moderne og etterspurt at diskusjonen og de politiske avgjørelsene rundt bruken av tre stiller nye krav til forskere og krever høy rekruttering av studenter i fremtiden.

Skog og landskap har analysert skogsflis som i dag omsettes i det norske flismarkedet. Resultatene er i hovedsak basert på materiale fra 5 distrikter med de tilhørende skogeierforeningene AT Skog BA, Viken Skog BA, Vestskog BA, Havass Skog BA og Mjøsen Skog BA. Skogeierforeninger har sammen med Skog og landskap samlet inn flisprøver av grot, heltre og stammeved, stubber, bark og bakhun. Fuktighet, bulkdensitet, brennverdi, energitetthet og flisstørrelse er analysert, målt og beregnet etter gjeldene standarder for fast biobrensel i Europa. Målinger og beregninger som gjør det mulig å kategorisere treflis i et marked for fornybar energi i Europa. Skog og landskap har totalt analysert 120 flisprøver. Flisstørrelse og flisklasse ble bestemt i henhold til standarder for fast biobrensel. Flisklasse er en angivelse av flisstørrelse. Flisklasse P16 og P31,5 er mindre flis hvor hoveddelen av flisen er mellom 3,15 og 31,5 mm. Mens klasse P45 og P63 er større flis mellom 8 og 65 mm. [...]
