Assessment of insect occurrence in boreal forests based on satellite imagery and field measurements.

The presence/absence data of twenty-seven forest insect taxa (e.g. Retinia resinella, Formica spp., Pissodes spp., several scolytids) and recorded environmental variation were used to investigate the applicability of modelling insect occurrence based on satellite imagery. The sampling was based on 1800 sample plots (25 m by 25 m) placed along the sides of 30 equilateral triangles (side 1 km) in a fragmented forest area (approximately 100 km2) in Evo, S Finland. The triangles were overlaid on land use maps interpreted from satellite images (Landsat TM 30 m multispectral scanner imagery 1991) and digitized geological maps. Insect occurrence was explained using either environmental variables measured in the field or those interpreted from the land use and geological maps. The fit of logistic regression models varied between species, possibly because some species may be associated with the characteristics of single trees while other species with stand characteristics. The occurrence of certain insect species at least, especially those associated with Scots pine, could be relatively accurately assessed indirectly on the basis of satellite imagery and geological maps. Models based on both remotely sensed and geological data better predicted the distribution of forest insects except in the case of Xylechinus pilosus, Dryocoetes sp. and Trypodendron lineatum, where the differences were relatively small in favour of the models based on field measurements. The number of species was related to habitat compartment size and distance from the habitat edge calculated from the land use maps, but logistic regressions suggested that other environmental variables in general masked the effect of these variables in species occurrence at the present scale.

森林昆虫对长白山森林生态系统健康的影响

本文系统研究了长白山昆虫种类、多样性及对森林生态系统健康的影响，研究结果如下：1、长白山已知名的昆虫有26目、209科、1162属、1960种，其中森林害虫有11目、105科、885种，重要的森林害虫638种，隶属6目、63科。2、不同海拔森林内，昆虫种的多度、优势类群属种数不同；在阔叶红松林中最高，在亚高山岳桦林中最低。3、森林昆虫群落中植食性昆虫类群的多样性指数最大，为2.921，其次为寄生性类群1.243，捕食类群最小为1.123。天敌昆虫群落中以捕食性类群的种数占比重最大。4、植物群落物种丰富度指数与植食性昆虫丰富度指数呈负相关，而与捕食性天敌昆虫丰富度指数呈正相关；寄生性天敌的丰富度指数却与植物群落丰富度指数呈负相关。植物群落的多样性指数与捕食性、寄生性天敌的多样性指数呈正相关，而与植食性昆虫的多样性指数呈负相关，这表明昆虫的多样性影响植物群落的多样性。5、皆伐迹地的害虫多样性比择伐迹地的高，在类群上也明显不同，表明择伐形式对森林生态系统的健康维持更为有利。6、长白山共有森林鸟200余种，对自然控制森林害虫，维持生态系统健康起到了积极作用。7、森林昆虫可以作为指示物种评价森林生态系统健康，特别是稀有种和重要害虫的发生数量。
