Examples of use of mountain pine
1. For instance, mountain pine beetles attack a variety of pines, like the lodgepole and ponderosa, but they aren‘t interested in Douglas firs.
2. Doug Struck explained last week in The Post that climate change is helping the ravenous mountain pine beetle devour forests in British Columbia, killing more trees than wildfires or logging.
3. Mountain pine bark beetles have killed about 3.5 million acres of lodgepole pine forests in northwestern Colorado over the past decade, wiping out '0 percent of pine forests in that area, Veblen said.
4. Fast–forward to the present, and Linden links unusual spikes in Earth‘s temperature beginning in the 1'80s to fast–melting arctic ice sheets, a devastating hurricane that nearly wiped New Orleans off the map last year, and now hordes of voracious mountain pine beetles munching their way through western Canada en route to the United States.
