Eastern Hemlock Ring shake, which is the separation of the wood between growth rings, is a serious problem in hemlock trees. Researchers have developed the following function that estimates the probability P that a given hemlock tree has ring shake: P(A,B,D)=11+e3.680.016A0.77B0.12D where A is the age of the tree yr, B is 1 if bird pecking is present and 0 otherwise, and D is the diameter in. of the tree at breast height.
