Forest management for mitigation and adaptation to climate change: Insights from long-term silviculture experiments

Problem Addressed: Forest management strategies for addressing global climate change
Goal(s)/Objective(s): Determine long-term efficacy of mitigation and adaptation strategies
Key Findings: There are trade-offs between the achievement of mitigation and adaptation objectives
Recommendation: Rigid adherence to a single objective, without recognizing potential consequences to other ecosystem components, may be detrimental to long-term ecosystem functioning within the context of environmental change

Net Carbon Flux of Dead Wood in Forests of the Eastern US

Problem Addressed: How to assess downed dead wood (DDW) carbon net flux
Goal(s)/Objective(s): Explore DDW carbon net flux in relation to other woody C pools and site/stand attributes
Key Findings: Diversity of ecosystem and number of organisms contribute to the complex dynamics of DDW carbon flux.
Recommendation: Assessing scale and timeframes of DDW C net flux to the atmosphere and other pools would benefit stand-level management.

Woody Debris Volume Depletion Through Decay: Implications for Biomass and Carbon Accounting

Problem Addressed: Underestimation of decay rates
Goal(s)/Objective(s): Develop method for estimating changes in log volume through time
Key Findings: Decaying logs have a collapse ratio that can serve as a surrogate for the volume remaining
Recommendation: Accounting for log volume depletion improves biomass-loss and carbon-accounting methods

Spruce Budworm (Chorisoneura fumiferana) pheromone chemistry and behavioral responses to pheromone components and analogs

Problem Addressed: Spruce Budworm
Goal(s)/Objective(s): Review the sex pheromone chemistry and pheromone-mediated behavior of the spruce budworm and related coniferophagous budworms.
Key Findings: Demonstrates an apparently normal male flight responses to a pheromone analog.

Parasitization of the spruce budworm, Choristoneura fumiferana (Clemens) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) by Brachymeria intermedia (Nees) (Hymenoptera: Chlaciddidae)

Problem Addressed: Spruce Budworm
Goal(s)/Objective(s): Study the use of the parasitoid Brachymeria intermedia to attack spruce budworm
Key Findings: The percentage mortality is considerably higher than the total native pupal parasitoid complex.
