Terpene concentrations measured at some mills have large swings of a seemingly seasonal nature. The question to be resolved is whether these variations are attributable to wood handling and mill operations or to biological factors associated with tree growth. Information in the available literature deals with monoterpene production and release associated with foliage, not wood. This paper describes the experiments and results of a study designed to compare the amount of monoterpenes from loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) increment cores to volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from total hydrocarbon analyses. Some seasonal trends were noted but cannot yet be attributed to specific climatological influences.
