Abstract
The circumferential variation in the wood relative density of lodgepole pine (Pinuscontorta var. latifolia Engelm.) was examined in eight discs taken at breast height. The purpose was to determine if the present method of analyzing two opposite radial strips from pith to bark was sufficient for estimating the mean density of the disc. Results showed that two samples taken opposite each other would give comparable or better approximation of the mean density of the disc than would three or four samples taken at random.
