Limited tree mortality in unburned areas linked to bark beetle spillover from wildfires
Abstract Increased fire activity in the western United States since 2000 has produced an abundance of fire‐injured trees at risk to lethal attack by bark beetles. Large populations of bark beetles reproducing in fire‐injured trees may disperse (or spillover) from inside the fire perimeter to adjacent, unburned forests, potentially causing extensive ...
