História

Mark Whitmore is Director of the New York State Hemlock Initiative and Senior Extension Associate, Natural Resources and the Environment at Cornell University. After graduate studies on biological control of native bark beetles at the University of Washington and U.C. Berkeley, Mark moved to Ithaca and settled into studying forest ecology. Appointed an extension associate in the DNR in 2006, Mark began outreach on what have become a rogue’s gallery of invasive insects currently changing our forested landscape. His research program has led back to adelgids where his lab researches the biology and ecology of predators released for classical biological control of the hemlock woolly adelgid.

Self
The Hemlock Woolly Adelgid. It's a species few people have heard of - yet it is devastating the Hemlock forests and the delicate ecosystems that depend upon them. From infestations in our own backyards, the Hemlock Woolly Adelgid has already spread throughout the east coast of North America from the Carolinas up into Canada.
