- Folder titled 'Silvicultural treatment of kauri regeneration, Katikati' and 2 other folders - Great Barrier, Katikati.Mensurations workings and graphs in 'raw state' No covering written material. This was probably Roger Cameron's folder when he was attempting to determine whether releasing (overhead ?) of regenerating kauri would result in a positive response. Gives height growth data for released and unreleased kauri. Bud scar rings below branch whorls not depicted in photos of drawings by Bakkener. (See clear depiction of these on vigorous sapling planted by kauri grove near old Pathology building, indicating annual height growth of 80cm or more over last few years. AEB.)

- Unpublished report on equivalent study on Great Barrier - response not justified by cost of treatment?
- General Note
- This removal by ring-girdling of all competitors to kauri reduced diversity of forest and was anathema to many observers.
