Popis:	A method of rapidly determining the longitudinal growth stress present on the surface of logs and standing trees is described. Application of the technique will enable detailed examination of stress present about the circumference and along the length of trees and logs. In addition it will enable comparisons to be made between trees, as well as monitoring changes occurring in a particular log as the result of treatment to reduce stress. Finally, its use will enable the selection of low stressed trees for genetic studies and propagation trials.
