Journal Article
Gil-Moreno, D., MClean, J. P., & Ridley-Ellis, D. (2023). Models to predict the radial variation of stiffness, strength, and density in planted noble fir, Norway spruce, western hemlock, and western red cedar in Great Britain. Annals of Forest Science, 80

Key message: This study compares the measured radial variation in wood stiffness, strength, and density of noble fir, Norway spruce, western hemlock, and western red cedar by developing mixed-effects models for each property using age as the explanat...

The influence of age on the timber properties and grading of Scots pine and larch in Ireland (2023)
Journal Article
Gil-Moreno, D., Manso, R., O’Ceallaigh, C., & Harte, A. M. (2024). The influence of age on the timber properties and grading of Scots pine and larch in Ireland. Forestry, 97(1), Article 133–146. https://doi.org/10.1093/forestry/cpad027

Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and larch (Larix spp.) are two species that could contribute to diversifying Ireland’s timber supply. However, there is little knowledge about their properties as well as their variation with age. The aim of this stud...
