Insect herbivore outbreaks viewed through a physiological framework : insights from Orthoptera / Spencer T. Behmer and Anthony Joern -- The dynamical effects of interactions between inducible plant resistance and food limitation during insect outbreaks / Karen C. Abbott -- Immune responses and their potential role in insect outbreaks / J. Gwen Shlichta and Angela M. Smilanich -- The role of ecological stoichiometry in outbreaks of insect herbivores / Eric M. Lind and Pedro Barbosa -- Plant-induced responses and herbivore population dynamics / André Kessler, Katja Poveda, and Erik H. Poelman -- Spatial synchrony of insect outbreaks / Andrew M. Liebhold, Kyle J. Haynes, and Ottar N. Bjørnstad -- What tree-ring reconstruction tells us about conifer defoliator outbreaks / Ann M. Lynch -- Insect-associated microorganisms and their possible role in outbreaks / Yasmin J. Cardoza, Richard W. Hofstetter, and Fernando E. Vega -- Life history traits and host plant use in defoliators and bark beetles : implications for population dynamics / Julia Koricheva, Maartje J. Klapwijk, and Christer Björkman -- The ecological consequences of insect outbreaks / Louie H. Yang -- Insect outbreaks in tropical forests : patterns, mechanisms, and consequences / Lee A. Dyer, Walter P. Carson, and Egbert G. Leigh Jr. -- Outbreaks and ecosystem services / Timothy D. Schowalter -- Evidence for outbreaks from the fossil record of insect herbivory / Conrad C. Labandeira -- Implications of host-associated differentiation in the control of pest species / Raul F. Medina -- Disasters by design : outbreaks along urban gradients / Michael J. Raupp, Paula M. Shrewsbury, and Dan A. Herms -- Resistance to transgenic crops and pest outbreaks / Bruce E. Tabashnik and Yves Carrière -- Natural enemies and insect outbreaks in agriculture : a landscape perspective / J. Megan Woltz, Benjamin P. Werling, and Douglas A. Landis -- Integrated pest management : outbreaks prevented, delayed, or facilitated? / Deborah K. Letourneau -- Insect invasions : lessons from biological control of weeds / Peter B. McEvoy, Fritzi S. Grevstad, and Shon S. Schooler -- Assessing the impact of climate change on outbreak potential / Maartje J. Klapwijk [and others].

"The abundance of insects can change dramatically from generation to generation; these generational changes may occur within a growing season or over a period of years. Such extraordinary density changes or "outbreaks" may be abrupt and ostensibly random, or population peaks may occur in a more or less cyclic fashion. They can be hugely destructive when the insect is a crop pest or carries diseases of humans, farm animals, or wildlife. Knowledge of these types of population dynamics and computer models that may help predict when they occur are very important. This important new book revisits a subject not thoroughly discussed in such a publication since 1988 and brings an international scale to the issue of insect outbreaks. Insect Outbreaks Revisited is intended for senior undergraduate and graduate students in ecology, population biology and entomology, as well as government and industry scientists doing research on pests, land managers, pest management personnel, extension personnel, conservation biologists and ecologists, and state, county and district foresters"--Provided by publisher.
