Tree Regeneration After Unprecedented Forest Disturbances in Central Europe Is Robust but Maladapted to Future Climate Change
Central European forests became hotspots of tree mortality from drought and bark beetles between 2018 and 2020, raising concerns about forest recovery. Based on field surveys from 849 disturbed sites....

📢 Insect-driven tree mortality is rising in Europe. Heat & drought favours bark/wood borers–especially in conifers–while moth defoliation declines across host types. Warm, dry regions are hit hardest by all feeding guilds. #GCB link: doi.org/10.1111/gcb.... #Forests #ClimateChange #TreeMortality

The increasing role of drought as an inciting factor of bark beetle outbreaks can cause large-scale transformation of Central European forests - Landscape Ecology
Context Historically, large-scale outbreaks of the European spruce bark beetle were initiated mainly by windthrows. However, after 2018, a severe drought triggered the hitherto largest bark beetle out...
