Just settin'' up for some stream flow loggin', why do you ask? #glfcscience #nrcanscience #sprucebudworm bit.ly/2ILgxUM
July 15th, 2020= 155 moths 🦋
#SpruceBudworm count in Pasadena, Newfoundland for the #budwormtracker program!
Concluded the summer budworm work today! What a great crew to work through covid-restrictions with! #sprucebudworm #research #fieldseason #summertechs #socialdistancing #COVID19
Somebody should remind Gaspésie that tomorrow is the first day of summer, snow should be long gone! #glfcscience #nrcanscience #sprucebudworm bit.ly/2XkOULR
What role does #phenology play in shaping insect-host relationships? Here's a great example from the current #sprucebudworm outbreak in #grosmornenationalpark
How do winter warm ups influence #SpruceBudworm survival and performance? A temperature-controlled water bath is a great tool for simulating the intensity, frequency and duration of extreme events.
Predation caught in the act! We happened to open the cage at the perfect time to see a spider feasting on one of our #sprucebudworm

#SpruceBudworm outbreaks result in mortality for 50% of affected trees! 🐛
Chap. 9 unravels how defoliation affects spruce’s carbon allocation and water status, shedding light on why mortality occurs.

Wrapping up this season’s #SpruceBudworm field work with some pole pruining!🌞
Thanks @CameronSquance for capturing us in action 😁
It’s been a strange winter hasn’t it? CFS scientists are taking to the field to investigate the consequences of climate change on #SpruceBudworm overwintering survival, and what that could mean for forest disturbance patterns.
Hard not to feel like my work follows me everywhere when, after a long day of fieldwork sampling Gaspésie fir/spruce stands with #sprucebudworm moths fluttering around, here’s what my motel scenery looks like:
There's something about these photos of #whitespruce #trees ravaged by #sprucebudworm in N. Wisconsin. Hauntingly beautiful.
I struggle saying this common name given how many times I've said Spruce Budworm in my life #BruceSpanworm #SpruceBudworm
In some beauty stands the last few days, but some areas have seen high defoliation already by #sprucebudworm #newfoundland CONIFER Lab
Did #climatechange accelerate the #sprucebudworm defoliation during the last century's #outbreak ? An indirect sign of 'yes' to the question was revealed when we identified escalated #effect of #defoliation on #growth with the increased #summertemperature within the #borealforest .
The bugs were relentless & the packs were bulky, but Foleyet is now covered in #sprucebudworm traps 🐛
