Model With Crossed and Nested Factors Moisture Content of Tree Branch Cuts McDermott, J.J. (1941). “The Effect of the Method of Cutting on the Moisture Content of Samples from Tree Branches”, American Journal of Botany, Vol.28,#6,pp.506-508.
Model Description • Response: Moisture Content (10x% of Dry weight) • Factors: • Species (5 Replicate Branches per Species) • Loblolly Pine • Shortleaf Pine • Yellow Poplar • Red Gum • Branch Locations • Central • Distal • Proximal • Transpiration Types • Rapid (Hot, Dry, Sunny Day) • Slow (Cool, Moist, Cloudy Day)
