1 28 A research paper, entitled “Perspective and Promise: a Century of Insect Acoustic Detection and Monitoring”, R. W. Mankin 1 , D. W. Hagstrum 2 , M. T. Smith 3 , A. L. Roda 4 , and M. T. K. Kairo 5 , will be published in the American Entomologist (Entomological Society of America) as a research paper during 2011. The paper contains information on CLB. More, specifically and of particular interest, is Figure 1 (attached). The figure is entitled: “Oscillogram, Os, and spectrogram, Sp, of a 24‐s period of signals recorded from a tree containing an A. chinensis larva. Darker shading in spectrogram (512‐ points per spectrum, 90% overlap) indicates higher relative spectrum level (higher energy). Blocked area, AC, marks a period with numerous A. chinensis impulses; N marks a period of mechanical noise; and B marks a bird call. Ovals in N and B mark frequency ranges where relative spectrum levels notably exceed those expected in larval signals.” *********************************************** ******************* Michael T.

Research 1 29 SEASONAL EMERGENCE OF ANOPLOPHORA CHINENSIS: DEVELOPMENT OF A DEGREE DAY MODEL The effectiveness of all pest management strategies depend in large part upon proper timing of their implementation to coincide with the targeted life state. For example, insecticidal control of adult beetles may coincide with adult emergence. Moreover, the best timings could be predicted by Degree‐day models. Degree‐day models, also known as phenology models are based on the fact that an insect's growth is closely linked to the temperature where it is found. A specific number of heat units are required for the insect to complete a certain physiological process. … How to develope a DDM… Caging infested stumps… Caged trees… No caged trees… In the picture: Michael T.
