Using an ecosystem approach to forest management will change silvicultural practices, thus requiring utilization options to provide revenue and to help offset the costs of the silviculture treatments. The Forest Service, university cooperators, and several industry mills in the southern, western, and northeastern United States have been involved in a national multidisciplinary research project to provide information and methods to evaluate current and future product opportunities for woody materials removed from ecosystem-managed forests. This paper explains how research from a range of...

This publication contains 31 research papers about forest insect biology, ecology, and physiology as they relate to the integration of cultural tactics into the management of bark beetle and reforestation pests. These papers were presented at a joint meeting of working parties S?.03.03 ("Insects affecting reforestation"), S7.03.05 ("Integrated control of scolytid bark beetles"), and S7.03.07 ("Population dynamics of forest insects") of the International Union of Forestry Research Organizations (IUFRO) working party. The meeting was held September 1-3, 1996, Vallombrosa, Italy.
