  • Abstract
    The Gas in scattering media absorption spectroscopy (GASMAS) technique provides new opportunities to nondestructively study gas in highly scattering natural and man-made porous materials. In this paper, we report applications of the GASMAS method on wood samples using diode-laser-based spectroscopy on molecular oxygen. And the integrated oxygen absorption for wood of different densities and the anisotropy related to the fibre structure was also investigated.
