Protecting temperate old‐growth forests as biotic microrefugia amid climate change

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Old‐growth forests are essential biotic microrefugia, providing high carbon storage, biodiversity, and stable microclimates that protect understorey species from climatic extremes. Their resilience to drought and disturbance makes them more effective than younger forests, yet habitat loss, fragmentation, and climate change increasingly threaten these ...

Olfaction in the Spruce Bark Beetle, Ips typographus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The bark beetle Ips typographus regularly kills spruce trees in the Palearctic. Spruces are colonized by means of attraction to an aggregation pheromone. Attraction is modulated by anti-attractive volatiles (NHV) from non-host plants.

The Long Arc of Forest Land Dispossession and Degradation—Firm and State Actions on Sámi Lands in the Wood‐Based Commodity Frontier in Northern Sweden, 1673–1955

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article presents a new way of obtaining deep explanations of environmental problems. We expose the production strategies, corporate strategies and state actions that have been taken by firms and state agencies to facilitate the geographical expansion of the wood‐based commodity frontier at the expense of reindeer pastoralists among the ...

Investigating the Correlation between Multisource Remote Sensing Data for Predicting Potential Spread of Ips typographus L. Spots in Healthy Trees

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
In the last decade, thousands of hectares of forests have been lost in the Czech Republic, primarily related to European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus L.), while more than 50% of the remaining Czech forests are in great danger, thus posing severe ...

Landscape conservation forecasting to evaluate ecological condition and wildlife habitat suitability in eastern Nevada U.S.A.

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Cooperation among managers of protected areas and federal multiple use lands with private inholdings to increase restoration success and economies of scale creates ecological and regulatory complexity best studied with state‐and‐transition simulation models (STSM).

A predictive framework to assess spatio‐temporal variability of infestations by the European spruce bark beetle

open access: yesEcography, 2013
Natural disturbances are key factors for the development of forest ecosystems. In forests of central Europe and Scandinavia, the European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus is the most devastating biotic disturbance agent in Norway spruce Picea abies ...

Therapeutic Bark Gouging as an Effective Complement for the Management of Ips typographus and Pityogenes chalcographus While Preserving Habitat for Secondary Scolytine (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Species

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 6, Page 780-790, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Norway spruce will likely remain an important tree species in Europe over the next few decades despite efforts to transform forests and reduce its distribution range more to its natural range. Consequently, Ips typographus will remain one of the most relevant forest pests the management of which will become increasingly challenging due to ...

Kernel-Based Early Detection of Forest Bark Beetle Attack Using Vegetation Indices Time Series of Sentinel-2

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
The European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus L.) is a biotic disturbance that devastates forest environmental services, and its activities are exacerbated due to climate change. Accordingly, researchers seek workflows using remote sensing imagery for

Participatory ground data are complementary to satellite bark beetle detection

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Science, 2023
Key message During pest outbreaks, mapping tools play an important role. Participatory projects can provide useful ground data, which have a high accuracy in detecting early-stage infestations and small spots of the European spruce bark beetle Ips ...
