Observed and anticipated impacts of drought on forest insects and diseases in the United States (2016, background): “The northward range expansion of mountain pine beetle into the Canadian boreal forest and the extensive outbreaks in highelevation five-needle pines of the western U.S. have been attributed to warming (Carroll et al., 2004; Logan et al., 2010; Weed et al., 2015).”
Massive mortality of aspen following severe drought along the southern edge of the Canadian boreal forest (2011, background): “…tree mortality has already increased, likely in response to the impacts of climatic warming and drought (van Mantgem et al., 2009) in combination with climatically induced, regional-scale outbreaks of bark beetles and other pests (Carroll et al., 2004; Breshears et al., 2005; Raffa et al., 2008).”
Invasive species, climate change and ecosystem-based adaptation : addressing multiple drivers of global change (2010, background): “The current status of mountain pine beetle also corresponds to a trend since the 1970s in the expansion of climatically suitable habitats for the beetle, which will likely allow for further expansion north, east and into higher elevations (Carroll et al. 2004).”
Climate change and range expansion of an aggressive bark beetle: evidence of higher beetle reproduction in naïve host tree populations (2010, methodology): “Research into the effects of climate on mountain pine beetle populations has led to the prediction that the beetle’s range will expand further north and to higher elevations based on current climate change modelling (Logan & Powell 2001; Carroll et al. 2004).”
Cross-scale Drivers of Natural Disturbances Prone to Anthropogenic Amplification: The Dynamics of Bark Beetle Eruptions (2008, background): “As a consequence of the approximately 1 degree Celsius (°C) to 2°C increase in mean annual temperatures in central British Columbia since 1970, populations have expanded into more northerly latitudes and higher elevations than where they previously persisted (Carroll et al. 2004).”
Forest, climate and mountain pine beetle outbreak dynamics in Western Canada. (2006, background): “Specifically, summer heat accumulation must be sufficient to allow development and reproduction followed by winter minimum temperatures that do not fall below thresholds that cause significant mortality (Carroll et al. 2004).”
Radar observation and aerial capture of mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopk. (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) in flight above the forest canopy (2008, background): “During an outbreak in southeastern British Columbia, southwestern Alberta, and northern Montana in the 1980s, mountain pine beetles were found 200 to 300 kilometers downwind of the infestation location over the prairies in residential and park pine trees (Cerezke 1989). In Norway, Nilssen (1984) use”
Modelling the potential impact of global warming on Ips typographus voltinism and reproductive diapause (2011, background): “This can have profound ecosystem effects by inducing phenological changes and northward shifts in the distribution of both plant and animal species (Parry et al. 2007), including major pest species that can have dramatic effects on forest ecosystems ( Carroll et al. 2003; Hagen et al. 2007 ;K urz e”
Common pathways by which non-native forest insects move internationally and domestically (2018, background): “Global trade in wood chips is growing quickly, with East Asia (China, Japan, and Korea) and Europe being major importers, and Southeast Asia, South America, and Oceania major exporters (Jiang et al.”
