Abstract During the spring of 2020, Choristoneura murinana (Hubner) otherwise European Fir Budworm (EFB) was recorded on Abies cephalonica near villages Kaloskopi and Agoriani in Central Greece at mountains Giona Parnassus respectively. To our knowledge, occurrence particular pest specific has not been described yet. We found that EFB mostly prefers less Juniperus oxycedrous sunny areas and/or ...

Voronoi tessellation is an exhaustive partitioning of space in a finite set of non-overlapping continuous regions called Voronoi polygons. Such construction is defined from a finite set of distinct points. To each point (also called generator point) is associated the region of the plane which is nearer to this particular generator point than to any other (Okabe et al. 1992). In plant ecology, p...

Northeastern U.S. forests are predominantly owned by people identifying as intrinsically linked to their land. Yet, with many privately-owned forests, management often occurs without the oversight of a trained forester.

To understand how a forest may respond to environmental changes or develop over time, it is necessary examine broad, landscape level factors. With the arrival of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), combination both spaceborne data with high resolution UAV can provide foresters and biologists powerful tools classify canopies species level, which we illustrate here. We combine imagery from Operation...

This paper uses a questionnaire and interviews from households in ethnic minority areas of the Jianchuan County (Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture) Pingbian (Honghe Hani Yi Yunnan Province to explore willingness foresters manage forests. Using Sustainable Livelihoods Analysis framework, we select three indicators including variables individual social economic attributes, cognition experience fores...

Urbanization is causing fragmentation of natural areas and impacting urban wildlife populations. Sustainability their habitat in arboriculture has focused on three key areas: retaining snags beneficial-tree features (e.g., hollows/cavities), education arborists the public, adoption systems-level thinking into (i.e., consideration risk matrices pruning objectives). We surveyed 805 using an inter...
