Results and Discussion

This project is a work in progress and consequently results presented in Distribution of Ash and Mapping Estimated EAB Spread, 1998-2005 could change pending new data or analysis or both. Results reported in Modeling Spread in Ohio are very preliminary.
Subsections found in Results and Discussion
- Distribution of Ash : Analysis of the distribution of ash at two scales showed two facts: there is a lot of ash available to the insect, and it is distributed throughout the Eastern United States.
- Mapping Estimated EAB Spread, 1998-2005 : The map of estimated EAB front locations was required for two reasons: (1) to create a baseline from which our spread modeling will commence; and (2) to estimate the average historic rate of spread that will help calibrate the model.
- Modeling Spread in Ohio : We present a modeling framework that considers both the insect- and the human-controlled dispersal mechanisms.
