Ecology of forest insect invasions (2017, background): “In other species, such as the gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar (Liebhold and Tobin 2006), and the emerald ash borer, A. planipennis (Siegert et al. 2014) lags result from the time required for newly founded populations to grow to greater densities such that they are noticed.”
Eradication of invasive forest insects: concepts, methods, costs and benefits (2010, background): “Live material transported beyond the advancing population front produces isolated colonies which grow and then coalesce (Liebhold & Tobin, 2006).”
To sample or eradicate? A cost minimization model for monitoring and managing an invasive species (2008, background): “While most of these introductions fail to establish reproducing populations, a few populations do succeed and they form isolated colonies that slowly grow in numbers and gradually expand in their spatial extent (Liebhold & Bascompte 2003; Liebhold & Tobin 2006).”
The evidence for Allee effects (2009, background): “Allee effects, defined as positive effects of increasing density on fitness, are a predicted consequence of multiple mechanisms in small or lowdensity populations, and are expected to affect many population-level processes, including extinction (Dennis 1989, 2002; Boukal and Berec 2002; Allen et al.”
Benefits of invasion prevention: Effect of time lags, spread rates, and damage persistence (2015, background): “3a) (Liebhold and Tobin, 2006), and damages began following a relatively short lag of about 11 years.”
Climate suitability and management of the gypsy moth invasion into Canada (2008, background): “These sequences of defoliation correspond to the familiar pattern of severe defoliation on the ‘‘leading edge’’ of the invasion process (Elkinton and Liebhold 1990; Liebhold and Tobin 2006).”
Population ecology of insect invasions and their management. (2008, background): “Liebhold and Tobin (75) reported a delay of approximately 12 years from the initial accidental introduction of the gypsy moth into North America until populations were noticed.”
The role of Allee effects in gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar (L.), invasions (2009, background): “…system of the invasion dynamics of a nonindigenous species because there are detailed data on its initial distribution (Forbush and Fernald 1896; Liebhold and Tobin 2006), its distribution through time (Burgess 1917, 1930; Perry 1955; Liebhold et al. 1992; Tobin et al. 2007a), and its…”
