Mapping a European Spruce Bark Beetle Outbreak Using Sentinel-2 Remote Sensing Data [PDF]

Remote Sensing, 2022
Insect outbreaks affect forests, causing the deaths of trees and high economic loss. In this study, we explored the detection of European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus, L.) outbreaks at the individual tree crown level using multispectral satellite ...

Is it possible and necessary to control European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus (L.) outbreak in the Białowieża Forest?

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.

Reaction of Wood Ants to a Large-Scale European Spruce Bark Beetle Outbreak in Temperate Forests. [PDF]

Insects
In the Białowieża Forest, Norway spruce is the preferred host tree species for wood ants, both in coniferous and mixed stands; thus, spruce mortality as a consequence of a continuous spruce bark beetle outbreak in the Białowieża Forest since 2012 could have severe consequences for wood ant colonies, as well as their vitality and distribution.

The bacterial community of the European spruce bark beetle in space and time [PDF]

Entomologia Generalis, 2023
Abstract The European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus is a pest causing severe damages in forests dominated by the Norway spruce in Europe. Microorganisms play an essential role in the host species performance, including nutrition, fitness as well as in overcoming host defenses ...

Potential of Scots Pine for a Push Strategy against the European Spruce Bark Beetle Ips typographus [PDF]

Forests, 2023
Ips typographus, the European spruce bark beetle, is a destructive forest insect that attacks spruce trees. It poses a significant threat to the forestry industry, causing widespread tree mortality and economic losses, and its management through chemical ecology is a promising approach.

Drought and stand susceptibility to attacks by the European spruce bark beetle: A remote sensing approach [PDF]

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, 2022
Abstract Several time‐series analyses have demonstrated that after extreme summer drought bark beetle damage increased. However, studies predicting stand susceptibility over large spatial extents are limited by technical constraints in obtaining detailed, spatially ...

Drone-based early detection of bark beetle infested spruce trees differs in endemic and epidemic populations [PDF]

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change
IntroductionEuropean forests face increasing threats due to climate change-induced stressors, which create the perfect conditions for bark beetle outbreaks.

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

Annals 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.

Sanitation felling against the European spruce bark beetle: A matter of intensity and forest type Tagli fitosanitari contro il bostrico tipografo: una questione di intensità e tipologia forestale

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
We assess the effect of sanitation felling performed in 2022 in North‐Eastern Italy on bark beetle damage that occurred in 2023 across eight spruce forest types, as evaluated using multispectral satellite imagery. Bark beetle damage was reduced only at very high or very low sanitation felling rates.

Combining empirical and mechanistic understanding of spruce bark beetle outbreak dynamics in the LPJ-GUESS (v4.1, r13130) vegetation model [PDF]

Geoscientific Model Development
For exploring forest performance in the future, dynamic vegetation models are important tools. Tree mortality is a crucial process in these models, but explicit representations of major agents of mortality have often been relatively underdeveloped.
