Table 5 Significance of the differences in radial models among trees within sites (intra-site) for wood density, microfibril angle (MFA) and modulus of elasticity (MOE) as a function of cambial age

From: Radial variation in modulus of elasticity, microfibril angle and wood density of veneer logs from plantation-grown Eucalyptus nitens

  1. The F values and their significance for each site and model are shown. A four-parameter logistic model was fitted for wood density, an asymptotic exponential model for microfibril angle and a three-parameter logistic sigmoidal model for modulus of elasticity
