Controlling landscape-scale bark beetle dynamics: Can we hit the right spot?
Original language description
Outbreaks of spruce bark beetle Ips typographus have devastating effects on European forest landscapes. Salvage removal of windfelled trees is deemed effective to prevent the outbreaks, although adverse effects on ecosystem recovery, ecologically valuable legacies, and unclear economic performance raise concerns about the widespread use of this practice. Here, we formulated a novel management framework aiming for the salvaging of a limited number of windfelled stands with the highest leverage for outbreak risk, potentially replacing the current largescale uniform treatments. We demonstrated our concept in a Central European forest landscape using the forest disturbance model iLand and a newly developed optimization tool based on graph theory. We simulated the removal of 33% and 66% of windfelled trees in (i) stands randomly distributed on the landscape and (ii) stands identified by the optimization algorithm. Moreover, we tested the effect of (iii) a no-treatment strategy and (iv) complete removal of
