Summary Wood density measurement is related to several factors that influence wood quality. In this paper, a CT image calibration procedure which allows image quantification in terms of dry bulk density is presented for three different X- and gamma-ray energies (28.3, and 59.5, and 662.0 keV). The mass attenuation coefficients measured for a set of eight wood species did not vary significantly, allowing a single calibration for determination of bulk density of air-dried wood samples at each energy. The equation for bulk density calibration obtained was validated using a second set of twelve wood species. Comparison of bulk density determined by CT images, using the calibration procedure proposed, with values obtained by gravimetric methods, presented a very good linear correlation coefficient (R2=0.94). The main advantage of CT imaging over conventional techniques for wood bulk density determination is that it allows detection and quantification of heterogeneities and internal defects. At the sub-millimetric spatial resolution level, it is possible to identify morphological and structural aspects of wood samples.

AbstractMass distribution of the interplanetary dust is reexamined taking into account bulk density distribution of the dust and larger particles. It can be shown that the mass index of particles depends on the evolutionary stage of the population and changes along the mass scale. The flattening of the mass distribution at the higher mass range may explain the problem of the equilibrium between the source and sink of the interplanetary dust.

Shade in silvopastoral systems improves the thermal comfort of animals, but it may also affect the pasture productivity and can contribute to soil compaction in the shaded areas due to the increase in the number of animals looking for comfort. The effect of grazing at various distances from tree rows (under the tree canopy, at 6 and at 12 m away from the trees) on the soil bulk density and on the aerial and root biomass of Brachiaria decumbens was evaluated in both the dry and the rainy seasons. The study was carried out on an Orthic Ferralsol in a randomized block design with two replications. Tree rows were composed of Eucalyptus grandis and Acacia mangium species, and the paddocks were submitted to a rotational stocking management, using Holstein (Bos taurus) × Zebu (Bos indicus) heifers. The shade intensity in the pasture decreased with an increasing distance from the tree row. Soil bulk density did not vary with the distance from the tree row, but varied seasonally, being greater in the rainy season (1.47 g cm-3) than in the dry season (1.28 g cm-3). Green forage and root mass, expressed as dry matter, were lower under the tree canopy and were greater in the rainy season. There were decreases of 22.3 and 41.4% in the aerial and root biomasses, respectively, in the tree rows. The greatest shoot/root ratio for B. decumbens under moderate and intensive shading indicates a modification in the forage biomass allocation pattern that favours the aerial development in detriment of the root system.
