Abstract
The green volume of increment core segments of Eucalyptus regnans was shown to increase after boiling in water (hygrothermal recovery), the changes being quadratically related to the logarithm of the boiling time. Maximum changes were recorded after 8 to 16 minutes boiling, those times at which shrinkage after reconditioning was shown previously to be at a minimum and recovered collapse a maximum. In the heartwood it was demonstrated that, when boiling time was omitted from the regression analyses, changes in shrinkage after reconditioning after boiling and changes in percentage collapse recovery were, respectively, negatively and positively related to change in green volume.
