Effects of Collection Cup Preservative on Flight Intercept Trap Performance for Forest Insects
Flight intercept traps are important tools for the monitoring and surveillance of forest Coleoptera. We investigated the comparative efficacy of three wet (saturated saltwater, propylene glycol, and soapy water) and one dry (dichlorvos strip) collection cup treatments on the capture of forest insects.

Senescent trees stabilize aboveground wood net primary production immediately after disturbance [PDF]
In the United States, forests sequester 17% of national carbon (C) emissions annually (UGCRP, 2018), however shifting forest disturbances threaten the stability of this essential C sink.

ABSTRACT Aim Ecotones are expected to be sensitive to climate change, but supporting evidence is scarce. Here we test the ecotonal sensitivity hypothesis by reconstructing past movements of a major temperature‐governed forest ecotone (the Tension Zone, separating temperate deciduous forests and northern mixed hardwood‐conifer forests) and comparing the

Functional traits are not consistently associated with tree growth rates but instead reflect dynamic resource acquisition and investment strategies over time and between deciduous and evergreen species. Despite this variability, our findings confirm the utility of functional traits to predict tree growth rates, especially when trait effects are ...

Sustaining management indefinitely for conservation-reliant species presents significant challenges for the conservation community. To reduce the costs of conservation reliance, managers can use adaptive management to evaluate how cost-saving changes to ...

Abstract Spatially explicit estimates of species abundance and distribution are increasingly needed to support conservation planning and management across multiple spatial scales. We present a generalized modeling framework that bridges the gap between local studies and regional to national planning by compiling and harmonizing diverse datasets to ...

Projected Red Pine Yields from Aldrin-Treated and Untreated Stands Damaged by White Grubs and Other Agents [PDF]
(excerpt) Young red pines, Pinus resinosa Ait., during the first few years after planting in the Lake States, are vulnerable to several injurious agents, including white grubs, the larvae of May beetles, Phyllophaga spp. (Kittredge, 1929; Craighead, 1950)

International Biological Flora: Tsuga canadensis*
Eastern Hemlock is a long‐lived forest tree of eastern North America known for its deep shade and home given to many organisms. Despite surviving large‐scale clearing for agriculture when Europeans arrived, it returned to dominate when the land was abandoned in the mid 1800s.
