  • Middle to Late Holocene vegetation history of the Upper Engadine (Swiss Alps): the role of man and fire
    Vegetation History and Archaeobotany, 2003
    Co-Authors: Erika Gobet, Willy Tinner, Peter A Hochuli, J. F. N. Leeuwen, Brigitta Ammann
    Abstract:

    To reconstruct the vegetation and fire history of the Upper Engadine, two continuous sediment cores from Lej da Champfèr and Lej da San Murezzan (Upper Engadine Valley, southeastern Switzerland) were analysed for pollen, plant macrofossils, charcoal and kerogen. The chronologies of the cores are based on 38 radiocarbon dates. Pollen and macrofossil data suggest a rapid afforestation with Betula, Pinus sylvestris, Pinus cembra, and Larix decidua after the retreat of the glaciers from the lake catchments 11,000 cal years ago. This vegetation type persisted until ca. 7300 cal b.p. (5350  b.c. ) when Picea replaced Pinus cembra . Pollen indicative of human impact suggests that in this high-mountain region of the central Alps strong anthropogenic activities began during the Early Bronze Age (3900 cal b.p. , 1950  b.c. ). Local human settlements led to vegetational changes, promoting the expansion of Larix decidua and Alnus viridis . In the case of Larix , continuing land use and especially grazing after fire led to the formation of Larix meadows. The expansion of Alnus viridis was directly induced by fire, as evidenced by time-series analysis. Subsequently, the process of forest conversion into open landscapes continued for millennia and reached its maximum at the end of the Middle Ages at around 500 cal b.p. ( a.d.  1450).

  • First report of the Larch Longhorn (Tetropium gabrieli Weise, Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Spondylidinae) on Larix spp. in Lithuania
    'MDPI AG', 2021
    Co-Authors: Lynikienė Jūratė, Tamutis Vytautas, Gedminas Artūras, Marčiulynas Adas, Menkis Audrius
    Abstract:

    Tetropium gabrieli is known to be native to the Alps in Europe where it breeds in European larch (Larix decidua), but it has spread to other areas and was reported in Poland, Sweden, Denmark and Belorussia. Although T. gabrieli is considered an important secondary pest of Larix spp., it can be particularly harmful to trees subjected to abiotic stress. Here we report that in Lithuania, T. gabrieli was for the first time captured in 2019 using sticky traps attached to Larix spp. trees. Two adult beetles were trapped at two different sites in central Lithuania, and this was in the period between 10th of May and 5th of June. Regarding potential threats caused by this insect pest, this new finding requires special attention, particularly on its biology, ecology, and local distributionBotanikos sodasKauno Tado Ivanausko zoologijos muziejusLietuvos agrarinių ir miškų mokslų centrasVytauto Didžiojo universiteta

  • First Report of the Larch Longhorn (Tetropium gabrieli Weise, Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Spondylidinae) on Larix spp. in Lithuania
    2021
    Co-Authors: Lynikiene Jurate, Tamutis Vytautas, Marčiulynas Adas, Gedminas Arturas, Menkis Audrius
    Abstract:

    Simple Summary:& nbsp;Tetropium gabrieli is a longhorn beetle that usually attacks weakened larch trees. During prolonged summer droughts, T. gabrieli can form outbreaks, causing damages to larch stands. Although it is known in several European countries, in Lithuania it was detected for the first time in 2019. The detection of T. gabrieli indicates potential secondary damages to European larch and other larch species growing in the area. & nbsp; Tetropium gabrieli is known to be native to the Alps in Europe where it breeds in European larch (Larix decidua), but it has spread to other areas and was reported in Poland, Sweden, Denmark and Belorussia.
