Title: | Biomass production and energy potential of some eastern cottonwood (populus deltoides bartr. ex marsh.) clones in relation to planting spacing | Authors: | Rončević, Srđan Andrašev, Siniša Ivanišević P. Kovačević, Branislav Klašnja B. |
Issue Date: | 1-Feb-2013 | Journal: | Sumarski List | Abstract: | The possibility of biomass production was studied in an experimental trial stand with four clones of Eastern cottonwood Populus deltoides Bartr. ex Marsh. cl.457, cl.450, cl.618 and cl. 55/65 and three stand densities a) 1.2 × 1.0 m (8330 plants•ha-1), b) 1.2 × 0.75 m (11110 plants•ha-1) and c) 1.2 × 0.5 m (16600 plants•ha -1). Field trials were conducted on sandy-loamy form of fl uvisol. Total determined volume of trunk, bark, and branches in the fi rst two-year cycle for the used Eastern cottonwood ranged from 27.391 m3• ha-1 in clone 450 at planting distance of 1.2 × 1.0 m, subtreatment (a) to 42.006 m3•ha-1 in clone 618, subtreatment (c) at planting distance of 1.2 × 0.5 m. Aft er renovation of stand using the regeneration force of shoots from the tree stumps the produced wood mass in the second two-year cycle ranged from 54.664 m3• ha-1 in clone 55/65, subtreatment (a) to 79.235 m3• ha-1 in clone 450, subtreatment (b). In additon to clone selection a signifi cant infl uence on biomass yeald was also exerted by stand density (number of plants•ha-1). Th e largest amount of heat energy would be obtained in subtreatment (c) at density of 1.20 × 0.5 m by combustion of biomass of above ground part of clone 55/65: 364.02 GJ•ha-1 in the fi rst cycle, and 659.83 GJ•ha-1 in the second, or a total of 1023.85 GJ•ha-1. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/9136 | ISSN: | 03731332 |
