Book Synopsis Tropical Forest Insect Pests by : K. S. S. Nair
Download or read book Tropical Forest Insect Pests written by K. S. S. Nair and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-05-10 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tropical Forest Insect Pests, first published in 2007, promotes a better theoretical understanding of pest population dynamics, and causes of forest insect outbreaks in the tropics. Covering pests of both natural forests and plantations, it examines the diversity of tropical forest insects; their ecological functions; the concept of pests; and the incidence of pests in natural forests, plantations, and stored timber. General issues on which foresters and forest entomologists hold strong traditional views, such as the severity of pest incidence in plantations vs. natural forests, in plantations of exotics vs. indigenous tree species, and in monocultures vs. mixed plantations are discussed. The final section looks in detail at specific insect pests of the common plantation tree species across the tropics, with recommendations for their control. This is a comprehensive resource suitable for graduate students and researchers in forestry and tropical forest entomology, and for forest plantation managers in the tropics.

Book Synopsis Insects and Forests by : Roger Dajoz
Download or read book Insects and Forests written by Roger Dajoz and published by Tec & Doc Lavoisier. This book was released on 2000 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, forest entomology has exclusively devoted itself to the study of pest species which affect the increasing number of artificial forests, the main concern being that of finding methods of control. However, as the economic and ecological costs of chemical pest control have continued to grow, it has become more and more important to develop our knowledge and understanding of the bionomics and the ecology of all forest insects. This new book meets that need as it is major and unrivalled reference for all forest entomologists. It deals with pest insects as well with all aspects of the bionomics and the ecology of forest insects. The author has included all the latest scientific data combined with his own expertise focussing on the relationships between trees and insects, biodiversity and the causes of change and depletion in the forest insect fauna. "Insects and Forests" covers all species of forest insects such as canopy and defoliating insects, gall forming insects, cone and seed eating and saproxylic insects. Details are also given on often neglected insects such as fungi and tree hole insects. Translated from the best-selling French book "Les insectes et la forêt", this English edition has been revised and enlarged with two new chapters on North American forests and tropical rain forests. "Insects an Forests" contains numerous illustrations together with more than 1 000 bibliographical references. It is an essential reference for professional and amateur entomologists, life science teachers in forestry institutes, estate owners and forestry managers.

Book Synopsis Forest Entomology by : William Ciesla
Download or read book Forest Entomology written by William Ciesla and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-03-08 with total page 694 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insects are the most abundant and diverse organisms that inhabit our planet and are found in all the world’s forest ecosystems. Many feed and/or breed on parts of trees. Some perform important functions, such as pollination or break-down of dead vegetation. Others weaken, deform or kill trees, and compete with humans for the many goods and services that trees and forests provide. Forest Entomology: A Global Perspective examines forest insects in a global context and reviews their dynamics, interactions with humans and methods for monitoring and management of species that damage forests. Also provided are 235 profiles of forest insects, worldwide. A series of tables provides summaries of the distribution and hosts of many more species. Included are those that damage forests, others that are simply curiosities and some that are beneficial. This book is designed as a reference for students, practicing foresters and forest health specialists, especially for those who work internationally or are concerned with species that have the potential to expand their ranges via international trade, travel or environmental changes.

Book Synopsis Dynamics of Forest Insect Populations by : Alan A. Berryman
Download or read book Dynamics of Forest Insect Populations written by Alan A. Berryman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insects multiply. Destruction reigns. There is dismay, followed by outcry, and demands to Authority. Authority remembers its experts or appoints some: they ought to know. The experts advise a Cure. The Cure can be almost anything: holy water from Mecca, a Government Commis sion, a culture of bacteria, poison, prayers denunciatory or tactful, a new god, a trap, a Pied Piper. The Cures have only one thing in common: with a little patience they always work. They have never been known entirely to fail. Likewise they have never been known to prevent the next outbreak. For the cycle of abundance and scarcity has a rhythm of its own, and the Cures are applied just when the plague of insects is going to abate through its own loss of momentum. -Abridged, with insects in place of voles, from C. Elton, 1924, Voles, Mice and Lemmings, with permission of Oxford University Press This book is an enquiry into the "natural rhythms" of insect abundance in forested ecosystems and into the forces that give rise to these rhythms. Forests form unique environ ments for such studies because one can find them growing under relatively natural (pri meval) conditions as well as under the domination of human actions. Also, the slow growth and turnover rates of forested ecosystems enable us to investigate insect popula tion dynamics in a plant environment that remains relatively constant or changes only slowly, this in contrast to agricultural systems, where change is often drastic and frequent.
