On October 26, 2017, the fRI Research Mountain Pine Beetle Ecology Program hosted the second annual Breaking News Workshop. The series of events is designed to share highlights from key MPBEP projects as they happen.
The 2016 Breaking News Workshop focused on a breakthrough in modeling how effective Alberta’s MPB control strategies have been. This year, the workshop shared results from projects on the impact of MPB on hydrology that are just wrapping up.
