Examples and papers about applications relevant to the forest products industry by researchers using ASD instrumentation. - Wood Adhesives Presentation
Presentation from 2005 Wood Adhesives meeting showing use of spectroscopy to measure resin, wax, and moisture in OSB chips - Development of a portable spectroscopic sensor to measure wood and fibre properties in standing mountain pine beetle-attacked trees and decked logs
A visible-near-infrared (vis-NIR) spectrometer was used to develop a unique, fast-scanning and field-portable tool to quantify parameters of relevance to mountain pine beetle infested standing lodgepole pines and decked logs. - High Spectral Resolution Remote Sensing of Forest Canopy Lingnin, Nitrogen and Ecosystem Processes
Remote sensing of foliar chemistry has been recognized as an important element in producing large-scale, spatially explicit estimates of forest ecosystem function. This study was designed to determine whether data from NASA’s Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) could be used to determine forest canopy chemistry at a spatial resolution of 20 m, and if so, to use that information to drive an ecosystem productivity model. - Spectroscopy of Humid Tropical Forests
