Distribution of Within-Ring Internal Checking in Pinus radiata Grown in Southern Chile

The increase of Pinus radiata plantations in Chile has brought larger annual volumes to the industry and the opportunity to process them into value-added products. Within-ring checks constitute an important problem that may affect the appearance quality of lumber. This problem occurs in the early wo...
