The Heat is On: What Record Heat and a Warming World Mean for Insect Outbreaks
Dr. Mike Raupp, University of Maryland
After a summer set to shatter records, we will see how warmer temperatures can alter ranges of pests, seasonal phenology of insects and mites, and interactions among plants, herbivores, and their natural enemies. Special emphasis will be placed on urban heat islands in the baking summer of 2016.
