Ecology of Forest Invasions and Ecosystem Responses
Northeastern woodlands and those throughout the United States are experiencing dramatic increases in the arrival and abundance of invasive pests. Understanding the ecology of pest invasions and the effects they are likely to have on forest ecosystems will help us prepare for and respond to changes they evoke. On January 21, 2009 join Dr. Andrew Liebhold of the US Forest Service who will offer an Internet web conference presentation on “Non-native pest invasions and forest change.” Dr. Liebhold will draw from decades of his research and others on forest ecosystem response to a variety of pest species. ForestConnect is a program of Cornell University Cooperative Extension and offers the monthly Internet seminar series using web conferencing technology.
