Detecting Forest Insect Pests in Canada

Goal(s)/Objective(s): Review McGugan's paper briefly, to describe the present capability of detecting forest insect pests in Canada, and finally, to offer a few comments about the future
Key Findings: If we possess enough knowledge about the systems involved and can monitor or measure the appropriate parameters, it might be possible to predict when and where outbreaks will occur.

Determination of Fenitrothion Residues in Honeybees and Their Products

Goal(s)/Objective(s): Describe the development of a gas-liquid chromatographic (GLC) method of analysis of the parent insecticide, its oxon and the cresol hydolysis product in honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) pollen, beeswax and honey from forested areas which had been treated with fenitrothion applied by aircraft.
Key Findings: Average recovery for the insecticide ranged from 84% in bees to 93% in honey.

Evaluation of Spruce Budworm Feeding Damage and Spray Success Using Remote Sensing

Problem Addressed: The evaluation of spray success using color and color infrared aerial photography
Goal(s)/Objective(s): Determine the location and amount of mortality caused by the spruce budworm, detect areas of new budworm attack earlier than with present models, identify forests requiring spraying or other control measures to prevent excessive tree mortality and timber loss from budworm attack more efficiently than with present methodology.
