Interactions between Climate and Stand Conditions Predict Pine Mortality during a Bark Beetle Outbreak
In temperate coniferous forests, biotic disturbances such as bark beetle outbreaks can result in widespread tree mortality. The characteristics of individual trees and stands, such as tree diameter and stand density, often influence the probability of tree mortality during a bark beetle outbreak. Ho...
