| dc.description | Key message Pith-to-bark wood density profiling is interesting in forestry science. By comparing it with the X-ray method, this study proved that a fiber optic NIR spectrometer with a high-precision displacement system could accurately measure intra-ring wood density with a spatial resolution of 0.5 mm. Context Most near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) studies for wood density determination use samples that have been pulverized beforehand. Attenuation of ionizing radiation is still the standard method to determine wood density with high spatial resolution. However, there is evidence that NIRS could be an accurate and affordable method for determining intra-ring density in solid wood strips. Aims In this study, we research whether the results published for intra-ring density predictions in wood can be improved when calibrated with X-ray microdensitometry. Methods The measurements were made using a fiber optic probe with a separation between measurement points of 0.508 mm in a range between 1200 and 2200 nm. A total of 4520 density points were used to create partial least squares regression (PLSR). X-ray densitometry data were used as reference values. Twenty PLSR calibrations were randomly executed on 31 samples collected from 28 Pinus radiata D. Don trees. Results Upon selecting 20 latent variables, the R-2 value was 0.873 for the training group and 0.895 for the validation group, while RMSEP values are 43.1 x 10(-3) and 47.1 x 10(-3) g cm(-3) for the training and validation groups, respectively. The range error ratio (RER) was 13.7. Conclusion The RER was high and almost in the range suggested for quantification purposes. Results are superior to wood density studies in the literature which do not employ spatial resolution and to those found in studies using hyperspectral imaging.Keywords Author Keywords:Wood rings; X-ray densitometry; Partial least; squares regression; Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy Plus:NEAR-INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY; PARTIAL LEAST-SQUARES; PINE PROGENY TEST; EUCALYPTUS-GLOBULUS; INCREMENT CORES; BASIC DENSITY; GROWTH | |
