Abstract

Spruce is one of the most valuable tree species in the forests of Belarus. Having, as a rule, a superficial location of the root system, spruce suffers especially from drought. In recent decades, the rate of this destructive phenomenon has accelerated significantly due to an increase in average annual air temperature (climate change). The drying up of spruce planting is accompanied by outbreaks of mass reproduction of a bark beetle-typographer, as a result of which, the death of spruce planting occurs, often over vast territories. Such dryings lead to radical disturbances in the structure of spruce planting on large areas, adverse ecological and economic consequences.

The defeat of spruce by the bark beetle-typographer cannot be prevented, however, its consequences can be significantly reduced through the use of better forecast monitoring. The methodology for forecast monitoring the spread of lesions of spruce planting by a bark beetle-typographer contains spatial and temporal components. The spatial component of forecasting (reflecting the location of the lesions) is based on the analysis of dry conditions over a long period of time. The temporal component of forecasting (reflecting the emergence, development and attenuation of the lesions) is based on the analysis of data from meteorological stations: air temperature, the sum of average daily air temperatures. On the basis of developed methodology, the system for forecast monitoring the lesions spread of spruce planting by a bark beetle-typographer was created. The comparison of the results of the field survey for 2019 and the results of predictive monitoring the spread of lesions of spruce planting by a bark beetle-typographer showed a good correspondence.
