We
have and continue to develop web-based tools for transferring
information to foresters. These efforts include:
- The
Verbenone Online Workshop
for professional foresters to learn about a new control tactic utilizing
the inhibitor verbenone for suppressing SPB infestations. The workshop walks
foresters through an informative training session which equips them with
the knowledge to effectively carry out the tactic in real control situations.
- Forest
and Tree Pest Sampling Database: A searchable database
for publications that focus on sampling for forest and shade tree insect
pests. This one is also under construction, but a pre-release version can
be viewed at.
- The HWA Online Bibliography covers publications related to hemlock and hemlock pests. It was developed by the USDA Forest Service and Virginia Tech. Warren T. Mays of Virginia Tech is the content manager of the site.
