Forest, climate and mountain pine beetle outbreak dynamics in Western Canada. (2006, background): “Accordingly, mountain pine beetle outbreaks generally occur in stands that are more than 80 years old, containing many trees of large diameter (Safranyik et al. 1974; Shore and Safranyik 1992).”
DOSE-DEPENDENT AND SPECIES-SPECIFIC RESPONSES OF PINE BARK BEETLES (COLEOPTERA: SCOLYTIDAE) TO MONOTERPENES IN ASSOCIATION WITH PHEROMONES (2000, background): “ponderosue (Miller and Borden 1985), which attacks mature lodgepole pines (Safranyik et al. 1974) that produce copious amounts of resin (Shrimpton 1978; Cates and Alexander 1982; Raffa and Berryman 1987), presumably with a high P-phellandrene content.”
Breach of the northern Rocky Mountain geoclimatic barrier: initiation of range expansion by the mountain pine beetle (2012, background): “The mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins) is an insect native to western North America that intermittently undergoes dramatic population fluctuations (Safranyik et al., 1974; Amman & Cole, 1983; Aukema et al., 2008).”
Remote sensing of forest pest damage: a review and lessons learned from a Canadian perspective* (2016, background): “Fade rates for foliage of trees infested with mountain pine beetle are variable and depend on factors such as tree health, as well as local climate and phenology (Safranyik et al. 1974).”
Spatial–temporal analysis of species range expansion: the case of the mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae (2009, background): “Tree death typically occurs 1–2 years after a successful attack, and, for a given location, outbreaks generally last 6–10 years (Safranyik et al., 1974).”
Management Strategies for Bark Beetles in Conifer Forests (2015, background): “For example, in North America several authors have suggested that shorter rotations and promotion of multiple age classes will minimize levels of tree mortality attributed to D. ponderosae (Safranyik et al., 1974; Taylor and Carroll, 2004; Whitehead et al., 2004).”
Potential for Range Expansion of Mountain Pine Beetle into the Boreal Forest of North America (2010, methodology): “…has an impact on a variety of forest values, including timber supply and wildlife habitat, can force dramatic changes in the forest industry (Safranyik et al. 1974; McGregor 1985), and in extreme cases converts large forested landscapes from carbon sinks to carbon sources (Kurz et al. 2008).”
Effect of climate change on range expansion by the mountain pine beetle in British Columbia (2003, background): “However, for North America, despite the development of several models predicting climate change impacts (e.g., Logan and Powell 2001), there is little empirical evidence that global warming has affected insect populations.”
Susceptibility of lodgepole pine stands to the mountain pine beetle : testing of a rating system (2000, background): “7 cm diameter at breast height (DBH)) were included, and larger trees are the most susceptible to the mountain pine beetle (Safranyik et al. 1974; Amman et al. 1977).”
