Silviculture and the Spruce Budworm in Maine

Problem Addressed: Spruce Budworm
Key Findings: Fir, the primary host of the budworm, is here to stay and while we may reduce its representation in our stands, it will always be sufficient to provide a food source for the budworm; silvicultural practices may reduce the losses from budworm attack, and can reduce the impact of the budworm on our total production by promoting rapid growth in new stands.

Aerial Photographic Techniques for Assessing the Impact of Spruce Budworm Defoliation in Maine

Goal(s)/Objective(s): Development of remote sensing techniques to better evaluate current feeding, tree and forest condition from past feeding, forest recovery after spraying, and mortality location from spruce budworm defoliation and other causes.
Key Findings: Tree and forest stand condition from past feeding was best interpreted on the CIR fall photos at scales of 1320 ft/in and larger
