Forest ecosystems, covering a significant portion of our planet, offer an abundance of valuable resources and amenities that profoundly impact our daily lives and leisure pursuits. These ecosystems provide habitats for a wide array of animal species, contribute to watershed protection, play a vital role in the water cycle, and actively mitigate soil erosion and global warming. Moreover, insects, being the most abundant organisms in forest ecosystems, fulfill numerous essential functions within these environments. Many of these functions are beneficial and crucial for the overall health and vitality of forests. Conversely, certain insects can cause damage to trees, reducing their capacity to provide the desired ecosystem services.
The primary target audience of this book encompasses upper-level undergraduate and graduate students, as well as professionals with a keen interest in forest health and entomology. By providing a comprehensive and accessible overview of forest entomology, pest management, and the intricate relationships between insects and forests, this resource aims to enhance the understanding and expertise of those engaged in the conservation and management of these valuable natural resources.
