Insect and disease issues are often specific to the Mediterranean
forest systems rather than shared with the temperate forests. In
addition to the specific native insects and diseases, the forests
are subject to the invasion of exotic species. The forests are also
at risk from high degrees of human activity, including changing
patterns of forest fires, land management activities, intensive
plantation forestry using introduced timber species from other
Mediterranean climate zones, and atmospheric deposition. Combined
with elements of global climate change that may disproportionately
affect Mediterranean climate systems, this creates a number of
significant management issues that are unique to the Mediterranean
forests. It is our goal that the information contained in this
volume will contribute to understanding the unique aspects of
Mediterranean forest systems and to protecting these critical
resources.
