Radial variations in wood specific gravity

Trees often display variation in specific gravity of their wood with growth. Woodcock and Shier (pp. 529-537) examine differences in specific gravity associated with canopy vs. subcanopy position for three species of temperate forest tree. They conclude that successional status is a more important factor in influencing directional trends.
