The aim of this paper was to characterize through experiment the moisture and temperature kinetic behavior of Eucalyptus gomphocephala wood samples using microwave heating(MWH)in two scenarios:intermittently and conti...
This study examines the effects of Acacia, Eucalyptus, and Cassava plantations on soil chemical composition in the Batéké Plateau, a tropical savanna region in Congo-Brazzaville. Using mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscop...

Over the last decade,the oriented strand board(OSB)market presented meaningful growth.However,as a woodbased product,because of its anatomical structure and chemical composition,OSB can be damaged by biodeterioration ...
Management of the Pointe-Noire Forest requires high-performance tools for simulating tree and stand growth and assessing the sustainability of plantations. Modelling the dynamics of even-aged and mono-species stands i...
Afforestation and reforestation are useful approaches to improve carbon sequestration. With the advent of forest plantations, growing environment conditions have become increasingly restrictive for light, soil nutrien...
Soil ploughing is an important stage in the preparation of planting, causing disturbance to the physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil. Soil ploughing can affect the availability of nutrients and wat...
In nature, plant extracts play a crucial role in defending plants against biotic and abiotic stressors. Moreover, the use of plant-based products, such as plant extracts, represents a promising alternative to syntheti...
Previous studies done elsewhere have shown that Eucalyptus poles treated with chromated copper arsenate (CCA) can last over 30 years. Kenya is exceptional because in some eco-regions, the Eucalyptus poles’ life span ...
