This book is a review of the current state of knowledge on the effects of climate change on forest pests and their implications for forest health protection and management. Because of the relatively limited research that has been dedicated specifically to forest pests, information on non-forest pests is also included to enable a better understanding of the potential impacts of climate change on forest health A deeper understanding of the complex relationships between a changing climate, forests and forest pests is vital to enable those in forest health protection and management to prepare for changes in the occurrence and impact of indigenous and exotic pests.
