• Anisotropic spread of hemlock woolly adelgid in the eastern United States (2009, background): “The relationship between HWA survival and cold temperature is well documented; cold winter temperatures can cause considerable mortality and trigger dramatic population declines (Parker et al. 1998, 2002; McClure and Cheah 1999; Skinner et al. 2003).”
• A foundation tree at the precipice: Tsuga canadensis health after the arrival of Adelges tsugae in central New England (2012, methodology): “The sensitivity of HWA to temperatures below 258C is documented by controlled environment studies (Parker et al. 1998, 1999, Skinner et al. 2003) and corroborated by growing field evidence.”
• Vegetation dynamics in declining eastern hemlock stands: 9 years of forest response to hemlock woolly adelgid infestation (2006, background): “The sensitivity of hemlock to drought stress (Burns and Honkala 1990) and the benefits of available nitrogen (McClure 1992) and mild winters (Parker et al. 1998; Skinner et al. 2003) for HWA populations have been documented and clearly play a role in regulating HWA population levels and hemlock heal”
• Role of winter temperature and climate change on the survival and future range expansion of the hemlock woolly adelgid (Adelges tsugae) in eastern North America (2008, background): “winter temperatures (Parker et al. 1998, 1999; Gouli et al. 2000; Skinner et al. 2003; Shields and Cheah 2004; Butin et al. 2005).”
• Responses of insect pests, pathogens, and invasive plant species to climate change in the forests of northeastern North America: what can we predict? (2009, background): “Currently, HWA is distributed among hemlocks growing in areas where minimum winter temperatures stay above –28.8 8C (Skinner et al. 2003).”
• A geographically variable model of hemlock woolly adelgid spread (2007, background): “cause of the link between HWA mortality and cold temperatures (Parker et al. 1998; Cheah and McClure 2002; Skinner et al. 2003; Shields and Cheah 2005).”
