Moose indifferent to canopy loss from forest disturbance by bark beetles
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.Moose showed strikingly similar patterns of habitat selection before and after widespread forest disturbance following an infestation of bark beetles. Our findings indicate that beetle‐kill does not appreciably alter habitat quality for moose and highlight the importance of riparian areas in sustaining moose as they contend with changing forests ...

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.Spatial synchrony of population fluctuations has major consequences for the impacts of forest insect pest outbreaks at regional scales. We tested the predictions that the strength and drivers of this synchrony would differ among species according to their dispersal abilities and feeding guilds.

Satellite-Based Assessment of Grassland Conversion and Related Fire Disturbance in the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska [PDF]
Spruce beetle-induced (Dendroctonus rufipennis (Kirby)) mortality on the Kenai Peninsula has been hypothesized by local ecologists to result in the conversion of forest to grassland and subsequent increased fire danger. This hypothesis stands in contrast

European Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) as a Functional Keystone Species Shaping Woodland Flora in the UK
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.Ash trees have distinct ecological attributes—their canopy allows a high level of light to penetrate and their foliage decomposes rapidly. Here we used woodland survey data to explore if the prevalence of ash trees has an impact on associated plant communities at a fine spatial scale.
