Potential Solar Radiation as a Driver for Bark Beetle Infestation on a Landscape Scale

open access: yes, 2019
In recent decades, Norway spruce (Picea abies L. Karst.) forests of the High Tatra Mountains have suffered unprecedented tree mortality caused by European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus L.).

Quantifying streamflow change following bark beetle outbreak in multiple central Colorado catchments

open access: yes, 2010
Over the last decade, millions of acres of western North American forest have been reduced to areas of standing dead trees following eruptions in bark beetle populations.

Outbreaks of European spruce bark beetle dramatically altered Norway spruce-dominated stands with implications for volant wildlife in the Białowieża Forest, Poland

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Science
Key message An outbreak of the European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus L.) in spruce (Picea abies L.) dominated forest stands in the Białowieża Forest, Poland, has led to fundamental changes in forest characteristics.

Communities of epigeic beetles in tree line from montane spruce forest to secondary meadow in the different stage of the forest decline in the area of Modrava (Bohemian forest, Czech Republic)

open access: yesEkológia (Bratislava), 2016
Communities of epigeic beetles were studied using pitfall trapping on 10 plots with the different stage of decline and clear-cut plots without coarse woody debris. Species richness (number of all species, S), total species diversity as the Shannon-Wiener’

Bark beetle outbreaks in coniferous forests

open access: yes
Extreme weather episodes related to anthropogenic climate change have enhanced the frequency and magnitude of bark beetle disturbance, causing worldwide mortality of forests in the last decades. Changes in temperature and precipitation regimes are altering the relationships between host tree populations and associated bark beetle species, as these ...

Mountain-pine beetle outbreaks and shifting social preferences for ecosystem services

open access: yes
Conventional wisdom appears to implicate climate change as the root cause of the unprecedented mountain pine beetle (MPB) outbreak currently underway in the western United States.

Outbreak dynamics of the spruce bark beetle Ips typographus in time and space [Elektronisk resurs]

open access: yes, 2015
The European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus (L.) is one of the most important pests of mature Norway spruce Picea abies (Karst.) in Europe. Outbreaks (periods with large-scale beetle-caused tree mortality) are often triggered by large-scale ...

Central-European mountain spruce forests: regeneration of tree species after a bark beetle outbreak

open access: yes, 2004
Two different approaches were applied to mountain spruce (Picea abies) forests attacked by bark beetle in the Šumava National Park (Czech Republic): (1) a small portion of the stands was left without intervention, relying upon natural regeneration, and ...

Changing Community Variations in Perceptions and Activeness in Response to the Spruce Bark Beetle Outbreak in Alaska

open access: yes, 2017
Local sociocultural processes including community perceptions and actions represent the most visible social impacts of various economic and environmental changes. Comparative community analysis has been used to examine diverse community perspectives on a

A minimal model of Norway spruce - bark beetle outbreak dynamics

open access: yes
Abstract Bark beetles pose a growing threat to coniferous forests worldwide, with outbreaks increasingly linked to environmental stress and host vulnerability. Most mechanistic models focus on equilibrium states, neglecting the dynamical nature of outbreaks triggered by environmental perturbations. Using
