🪲🌲How can fewer bark beetles fuel a bigger outbreak? Exciting new research by Swedish #RESDINET team reveals how drought-weakened spruce can boost beetle reproduction at outbreak onset, & why early action matters🔬doi.org/10.1016/j.foreco.202… Photos: by Danja Fritscher

New study from the Italian Alps by Slovak #Resdinet team: push (anti-attractants) protected spruce better than push–pull (anti-attractants + pheromone traps) at low trap density. Even with a verbenone-free anti-attractant blend🌲doi.org/10.1016/j.foreco.202…

The Slovak RESDINET team joined #Evoltree2025 in Madrid, presenting new research on forest resilience, from bark beetle dynamics (FORSOMICS) to genomic + satellite analyses of 850+ spruce trees. Strengthening EU collaboration for climate-smart forests🌲 #Resdinet #Forgenious

SLU researcher Langning Huo has pioneered early airborne detection of spruce bark beetle attacks using carotenoid signals🌲 A major boost for RESDINET’s mission: global expertise, local impact, and science-based tools for forest resilience. #RESDINET #Forests #SLU

New in Forest Ecology & Management: The Slovak #RESDINET team combines thermal imaging, LiDAR & sap-flow data to detect drought stress in spruce forests before bark beetle attack. 🌲💧 Early signals of resilience = smarter forest management. 🔗 doi.org/10.1016/j.foreco.202…

Simulating forest futures🌲Forests cover 30% of Earth & store 3× more carbon than the atmosphere, but face rising climate stress🌍At the #RESDINET meeting, researchers trained in the #iLand model to simulate wind, beetles & management, building data-driven forest resilience 🌲

In the High Tatras, #RESDINET researchers traced a chain of decline: 🍄 Armillaria weakens the roots, 🪲bark beetles strike stressed trees, and 🌡️ climate extremes amplify it all. Understanding these links is key to building resilient forests🌲 #EUresearch #WIDERA #foresthealth

In the High Tatras, #RESDINET researchers learned directly from the landscape🌲Field trips led by Ján Slivinský & Rastislav Jakuš revealed how wind, bark beetles, Armillaria, and climate stress intertwine, turning data into living lessons on forest resilience #EUresearch #WIDERA

At the #RESDINET seminar in Tatranská Javorina, researchers shared new insights, from drone-based stress detection to tree and fungal genomics, advancing our understanding of forest resilience under climate change🌲EUresearch #WIDERA #foresthealth

Our final #RESDINET meeting in the Tatras marked the end of a project, but not the end of the journey 🌲 We’ve built strong scientific and personal ties that will grow into future collaborations across Europe and beyond🌍💚 #forestresilience #EUresearch #WIDERA

🌍 At #ForestsFuture2025 in Czechia, our 🇫🇮🇸🇪🇸🇰 RESDINET partners joined global experts to tackle bark beetle outbreaks. From ecology to policy, we shared research & built collaborations for resilient forests 🌲✨ #RESDINET #ForestHealth #ForestScience

We visited Hyytiälä Forest Station 🇫🇮 with NLS FGI — Living Lab + SMEAR II + tower LiDAR. ‘Dead’ spruces last year look alive this year: likely Cephalcia abietis defoliation, not bark beetle. Right diagnosis = right action. #Forestry #LiDAR #Finland #RESDiNET #Hyytiala

The Slovak Resdinet team attended and presented at #UAVG2025 🇸🇰🛰️. Highlights: LiDAR-centric navigation, hyperspectral plant health, under-canopy autonomy, early bark-beetle alerts 🌲🐞, BVLOS at scale. #ISPRS #Geomatics #UAV #Hyperspectral

In Finland's forests, a new guardian is taking flight. Kelluu’s AI-powered airship monitors natural ecosystems from above, collecting real-time data, detecting risks early, protecting what matters most. #remotesensing #forestmonitoring 🎥@kelluuairships 🎵@morninglightmusic.io

🌱Precision forestry in action! The #RESDiNET team visited 🇦🇹 LIECO, Central Europe’s top forest nursery, where €2000/kg seeds, custom containers, & zero-ground contact of seedlings ensure climate-resilient seedlings from root to crown🌳💧#ForestResilience #ClimateSmartForestry

🌍 Slovak #RESDiNET team joined forest scientists in Austria for a summer school on #AssistedMigration 🌲 From modelling climate impacts to visiting cutting-edge nurseries, they’re building tools for forest resilience in a warming world 🌿💻🇸🇰 #ForestResilience #HorizonEurope

Dead spruces at Finland’s Koli National Park made front-page news 📰🪲 Our RESDINET team is using remote sensing + ecology to track bark beetle outbreaks and build climate-smart forest tools: local science with global impact.🌍🌲 #ForestResilience #RESDINET #HorizonEurope
