Annotated Bibliography for Forest Managers on Fire-Bark Beetle Interactions

, 2008
Forest managers in the western US are facing more fires and the most extensive bark beetle outbreaks recorded for the region. • Interactions of wildfire and bark beetle outbreaks and their reciprocal influences on fire behavior, bark beetle dynamics, and

Cascading Impacts of Bark Beetle-Caused Tree Mortality on Coupled Biogeophysical and Biogeochemical Processes

, 2012
Recent, large‐scale outbreaks of bark beetle infestations have affected millions of hectares of forest in western North America, covering an area similar in size to that impacted by fire.

Early response of understory vegetation to the mass dieback of Norway spruce in the European lowland temperate forest

Forest Ecosystems
Spruce-dominated forests are commonly exposed to disturbances associated with mass occurrences of bark beetles. The dieback of trees triggers many physical and chemical processes in the ecosystem resulting in rapid changes in the vegetation of the lower ...

A comparison of outbreak dynamics of the spruce bark beetle in Sweden and the mountain pine beetle in Canada (Curculionidae: Scolytinae) [PDF]

, 2010
The European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus) and the North American mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) may kill millions of trees during outbreak periods. Both species have also experienced large outbreaks in recent years.

Small Beetle, Large-scale Drivers: How Regional and Landscape Factors Affect Outbreaks of the European Spruce Bark Beetle

, 2016
Unprecedented bark beetle outbreaks have been observed for a variety of forest ecosystems recently, and damage is expected to further intensify as a consequence of climate change.

Spatial and temporal dynamics of a bark beetle outbreak in the Eastern European Alps

Ecosphere
Abstract The Alps are currently considered among the ecoregions with the highest magnitude of average bark beetle disturbance per year in Europe. We present a disturbance characterization based on a unique database including more than 50,000 records of ground‐based bark beetle disturbance observations in the Eastern Alps from 2020 to ...

Overwintering of Eight Toothed Spruce Bark Beetle (Ips typographus) in Spruce Forests of North Velebit

Croatian Journal of Forest Engineering, 2011
The eight toothed spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus) plays an important role in spruce forests of Croatia, in the same way as it does in the rest of Europe wherever spruce grows. The size and intensity of its outbreaks is considerably lower though, and

Large-scale simulations of interactions between wind storms and bark beetle outbreaks.

Forests play a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity, regulating the climate, and providing essential ecosystem services. However, they are increasingly vulnerable to natural disturbances such as windstorms, insect outbreaks, fires, and droughts, which are exacerbated by climate change.

Peeking under the bark: Within-tree densities of the spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus) and its enemies in forest conservation areas [Elektronisk resurs]

The European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus is a major forest pest in Europe, with outbreaks intensifying due to climate change-induced weather events.
