Simulation modeling of forest landscape disturbances: An overview -- Modeling windthrow at stand and landscape scales -- Approaches to modeling landscape-scale drought-induced forest mortality -- Modeling wildfire regimes in forest landscapes: Abstracting a complex reality -- Modeling insect disturbance across forested landscapes: Insights from the spruce budworm -- Individual-based modeling: Mountain pine beetle seasonal biology in response to climate -- Southern pine beetle herbivory in the southern United States: Moving from external disturbance to internal process -- Exploring interactions among multiple disturbance agents in forest landscapes: Simulating effects of fire, beetles, and disease under climate change -- Simulating forest landscape disturbances as coupled human and natural systems -- Simulating forest recovery following disturbances: Vegetation dynamics and biogeochemistry -- Simulation modeling of forest landscape disturbances: Where do we go from here?

Forest landscape disturbances are a global phenomenon. Simulation models are an important tool in understanding these broad scale processes and exploring their effects on forest ecosystems. This book contains a collection of insights from a group of ecologists who address a variety of processes: physical disturbances such as drought, wind, and fire; biological disturbances such as defoliating insects and bark beetles; anthropogenic influences; interactions among disturbances; effects of climate change on disturbances; and the recovery of forest landscapes from disturbances--all from a simulation modeling perspective. These discussions and examples offer a broad synopsis of the state of this rapidly evolving subject.
