tree source= the type of tree basically (the name of the tree both local and scientfic). if the technique can provide other information such as age location then that will be great.

Hi, I'm trying to do research on techniques that can be used to identify the tree source of wood and charcoal. I'm looking for references from scientific journals to start. Found one using x-ray diffraction methods. I will appreciate if anyone can send links to papers even abstracts that focus on this topic better yet focus on using the x-ray diffraction for this purpose. Thanks in advance!
