Selected Contributions from WSE2019—The 15th Annual Meeting of the Northern European Network for Wood Science and Engineering

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue includes selected contributions from the 15th Annual Meeting of the Northern European Network for Wood Science and Engineering—WSE2019, which was held in Lund, Sweden, 9–10 October 2019. The network had its first annual meeting in 2005, and the purpose of the network is to promote collaboration between Northern European researchers within wood science and engineering. Young researchers are especially encouraged to participate in the meetings and present their work. The conference covers the topics: wood physics and mechanics, wood protection and modification, durability, wood engineering, engineered wood products and composites, and application of wood-based materials.
