The papers in this volume summarize much of the recent research on decision support systems for forest pest management, as presented at a workshop. The papers cover case studies of decision support system development for five major insect pests: gypsy moth, eastern hemlock looper, spruce budworm, mountain pine beetle, and spruce weevil. Three additional papers discuss the role of data visualization applications in forest health management, a seasonal pest management tool, and the use of the ArcView software as a user interface.
