ERT measurements show that water pockets in heartwood (wetwood) are present in a large majority (90%) of silver fir ( Abies alba Mill.) trunks.
Context : For wood professionals, the presence of wetwood in wood logs leads to an increase in costs, especially during the drying process. Assessing these internal properties in situ with a nondestructive method will provide reliable information for improved management of respective forests.
Aims : The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of the electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) tool to detect wetwood in standing trees and to estimate the mean moisture content (MC) of silver fir trunks.
Methods : The study was carried out in 3 forests located in the region “Massif Central” in France. We selected 58 silver fir trees, visually healthy and without visible default. Each tree has been subject to regular ERT measurements for more than a year. At the same time, one to three cores were taken from each tree in order to measure the actual MC of the wood.
Results : 90% of the silver fir trees showed the presence of wetwood in their heartwood. Our results showed a significant correlation between the mean heartwood MC measured on cores and the mean electrical resistivity (ER) obtained with ERT.
Conclusion : The presence of wetwood occurs in a high proportion of the silver fir trees studied, and (ii) ERT can be used to estimate the average MC of the heartwood of standing trees. However, the data provided by ERT vary seasonally and do not allow the precise location of wetwood.Numéro de notice : A2021-622 Affiliation des auteurs : non IGN Thématique : FORET/IMAGERIE Nature : Article nature-HAL : ArtAvecCL-RevueIntern DOI : 10.1007/s13595-021-01078-9 Date de publication en ligne : 27/07/2021 En ligne : https://doi.org/10.1007/s13595-021-01078-9 Format de la ressource électronique : URL article Permalink : https://documentation.ensg.eu/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=98244
