Symposium on Current Research in the Chemical Sciences. Annual Southern StationChemical Sciences Meeting (3rd). Held in Alexandria, Louisiana on February 7-8, 1990

摘要

The collection of papers is divided into three sections addressing forestbiology, forest protection, and forest utilization. It effectively covers the life cycle of the forest with topics ranging from seed coat physiology to the development of new adhesives for wood composites, The report also illustrates the far-reaching role of chemistry through the discussion of subjects as fundamental as polyflavanoid stereochemistry and as applied as nitrogen fixation in agroforestry systems. The proceeding defines the wide range of research problems whose solution lies somewhere in the realm of chemistry.
