Deep Learning for Satellite‐Based Forest Disturbance Monitoring: Recent Advances and Challenges

WIREs Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery, Volume 16, Issue 2, June 2026.
Overview of key research challenges in forest disturbance monitoring, including the detection of disturbances of varying severity, the attribution of disturbance agents, and the development of models capable of generalizing across regions. ABSTRACT Climate change and land use pressures are intensifying forest disturbances in many world regions, as ...

Shaping future forests: how can ecophysiology support climate‐smart forest management?

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2778-2813, June 2026.
Summary Climate change, particularly the associated increase in extreme events and disturbances, threatens the numerous environmental, social, and economic benefits that forests provide, both locally and globally. Heat and drought pose significant risks to forest ecosystems; the anticipated future climate is expected to exacerbate this trend ...

Constitutive and inducible oleoresin defenses share genetic architectures and mechanisms in Pinus taeda

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2966-2987, June 2026.
Summary The oleoresin defense system of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) protects trees from insects and pathogens and is an important source of renewable biofuels and chemicals, but the genetic basis of oleoresin production is poorly understood. We characterized the genetic architecture of oleoresin flow, resin canal number, stem wood terpene content, and ...

Modelling bark beetle disturbances in a large scale forest scenario model to assess climate change impacts and evaluate adaptive management strategies [PDF]

To study potential consequences of climate-induced changes in the biotic disturbance regime at regional to national scale we integrated a model of Ips typographus (L. Scol. Col.) damages into the large-scale forest scenario model EFISCEN.

How Large, Decayed, and Moist Must Rotting Logs Be to Act as Thermally Buffered Microhabitats in Temperate Eastern United States Forests?

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study addresses the ecological role of coarse woody debris (CWD) as a thermally buffered microhabitat for saproxylic organisms in temperate eastern US forests. We measured internal and external log temperatures across four seasons in Southern Appalachian forests to test how log diameter, decay stage, and moisture influence thermal buffering.

Impact of pine looper defoliation in Scots pine [PDF]

, 2003
Widespread defoliation of forests caused by insects or fungi cause economic losses throughout the world. Successful outbreak management involves cost/benefit estimation and requires knowledge of potential yield losses. Currently, such knowledge is scarce.

Ophiostomatoid fungi associated with the spruce bark beetle Ips typographus f. aponicus in Japan [PDF]

, 1997
Fungi were isolated from the beetles, Ips typographus f. japonicus and Yezo spruce (Picea jezoensis) trees infested with the beetles inHokkaido, Japan. Nine species of ophiostomatoid fungi including one new species were identi®ed.

Influence of Deadwood, Tree‐Related Microhabitats, and Forest Structural Features on Saproxylic Arthropod Diversity

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding across 135 temperate forest plots in Germany to examine how deadwood, tree‐related microhabitats (TreMs), and forest structure shape saproxylic arthropod communities. Structural equation modeling revealed that TreM richness and deadwood volume are key predictors of arthropod diversity, highlighting the ...
