Abstract
This article discusses the challenges posed by non-native forest insects and the importance of risk mapping approaches to address this threat. It highlights the impacts of invasive forest insects on forest health, ecosystem services, and the economy. The article emphasizes the importance of pest risk models and maps in assessing the risk posed by invasive pests and guiding management and surveillance strategies. It also presents various modeling methods and tools that have been developed to predict the phenology, climate suitability, and spread of invasive insects. The article concludes by emphasizing the need for engagement with end users and improving outreach and training to ensure the broader uptake of pest forecasting tools and map products. The given text consists of a list of references and citations related to the topic of invasive forest insects and their impact on ecosystems. The references cover various aspects of the issue, including the ecological and economic impacts of invasive insects, the role of climate change in facilitating their spread, and the development of decision support systems for risk assessment and management. The text emphasizes the need for surveillance and early detection of high-consequence pests and pathogens to prevent their establishment and spread. It also highlights the importance of accurate species distribution modeling and phenology forecasting in managing invasive forest pests. [Extracted from the article]
