Early Prediction of Regional Red Needle Cast Outbreaks Using Climatic Data Trends and Satellite-Derived Observations

Early Prediction of Regional Red Needle Cast Outbreaks Using Climatic Data Trends and Satellite-Derived Observations

Red needle cast (RNC), mainly caused by <i>Phytophthora pluvialis</i>, is a very damaging disease of the widely grown species radiata pine within New Zealand. Using a combination of satellite imagery and weather data, a novel methodology was developed to pre-visually predict the incidenc...
