Recent bark beetle outbreaks have little impact on streamflow in the Western United States
Environmental Research Letters, 2016 In the Western United States (US), the current mountain pine beetle (MPB; Dendroctonus ponderosae ) epidemic has affected more than five million hectares since its start in 1996, including headwater catchments that supply water to much of the Western US.

Predictive Model for Bark Beetle Outbreaks in European Forests
ForestsBark beetle outbreaks and forest mortality have rocketed in European forests because of warmer winters, intense droughts, and poor management. The methods developed to predict a bark beetle outbreak have three main limitations: (i) a small-spatial-scale implementation; (ii) specific field-based input datasets that are usually hard to obtain at large ...

Leśne Prace Badawcze, 2017 In response to the information published in ‘Forest Research Papers’ (vol. 77(4), 2016), regarding the problem of the European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus (L.) in the Białowieża Forest, we present our viewpoint on this issue.

Ecological Applications, 2014 The degree to which recent bark beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) outbreaks may influence fire severity and postfire tree regeneration is of heightened interest to resource managers throughout western North America, but empirical data on actual fire effects are lacking.

Using lake sediment records to reconstruct bark beetle disturbances in western North America [PDF]
Frontiers of Biogeography, 2013 The recent outbreak of native bark beetles in western North America is unprecedented in severity and scale, at least during the historical period. The aim of this work is to develop a proxy-based methodology to understand how bark beetle disturbances are

Climate change and the outbreak ranges of two North American bark beetles
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, 2002 Abstract One expected effect of global climate change on insect populations is a shift in geographical distributions toward higher latitudes and higher elevations. Southern pine beetle Dendroctonus frontalis

Bark beetle outbreak enhances biodiversity and foraging habitat of native bees in alpine landscapes of the southern Rocky Mountains. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2020 Landscape-scale bark beetle outbreaks alter forest structure with direct and indirect effects on plants and animals in forest ecosystems. Using alpine spruce forest and a native bee community as a study system, we tested how tree mortality from bark ...

Outbreak dynamics of the spruce bark beetle Ips typographus in time and space [PDF]
, 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 stormfellings or drought, which provide a large surplus of suitable breeding material. The overall aim of the
