MARC recordReducing solar heat gain during winter: the role of white bark in northern deciduous trees / Tim J. Karels, Rudy Boonstra.
| Title: | Reducing solar heat gain during winter: the role of white bark in northern deciduous trees / Tim J. Karels, Rudy Boonstra. |
| Author(s): | Karels, Tim J. Boonstra, Rudy. |
| Date: | 2003. |
| In: | Arctic. (2003.), Vol. 56(2) (2003) |
| Abstract: | Authors tested hypothesis that light coloured bark minimises thawing and freezing of cambium tissue that could cause injury. In midwinter, maximum midday cambium temperatures were measured under brown-painted, natural and white-painted bark of birch Betula papyrifera, trembling aspen, yellow birch and largetooth aspen. After two years, trembling aspen painted brown had 35% of probably sunscald injury compared with c. 4% for white painted or natural specimens. |
