Abstract
This thesis has been written in the form of two separate journal manuscripts, the first article examines the impacts of precommercial thinning on the internal water relations of loblolly pine, the second article discusses the effects of thinning on wood properties of loblolly pine. The articles have been prepared in the fermat prescribed by the Canadian Journal of Forest Research. Because each article stands alone as a separate manuscript 9 some duplication was necessary in the Materials and Methods sections of the two articles. I beg the indulgence of my readers for the unavoidable redundancy.
