Bark beetle population dynamics in the Anthropocene: Challenges and solutions [PDF]
Tree-killing bark beetles are the most economically important insects in conifer forests worldwide. However, despite N200 years of research, the drivers of population eruptions and crashes are still not fully understood and the existing knowledge is thus

AbstractBark beetles often feed on dead or dying plant tissues, serving as primary decomposers. However, some bark beetle species kill healthy trees, although at the time of attack, these healthy trees are often experiencing stressful conditions, such as drought or lightning strikes.

In natural spruce stands, a change of generation is usually initiated by wind or bark beetle disturbances. We combined semi-temporary monitoring plots, remote sensing, and GIS in order to understand and model these processes.

Bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) are among the important pests of forest in the world and in Turkey. Pine-feeding bark beetles interact chemically with their host tree via the behavioral, physiological, and biochemical effects of one class of ...

The European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus L. causes significant economic losses in managed coniferous forests in Central and Northern Europe. New infestations either occur in previously undisturbed forest stands (i.e., spot initiation) or depend on

Tree defence and bark beetles in a drying world: carbon partitioning, functioning and modelling. [PDF]
Drought has promoted large-scale, insect-induced tree mortality in recent years, with severe consequences for ecosystem function, atmospheric processes, sustainable resources and global biogeochemical cycles.
