摘要
The western conifer seed bug (WCSB), Leptoglossus occidentalis, has expanded rapidly in the southern peninsula of Korea since it was first reported in southeastern Korea in 2010. Two types of human-mediated passive movements were devised for modeling the rapid advancement of the pest population in this study: traffic effects and forest-product transportation. A lattice structure model (LSM) was developed to accommodate the traffic effects pertaining to the local area along with the natural population dynamics of the pest. Separately, a spatial network model (SNM) was constructed to present the passive movement of the WCSB because of forest-product transportation between all local areas in Korea. The gravity rule was applied to obtain the parameters for forest-product transportation between the local areas. LSM and SNM were linked to the two present types of passive movements in the model. The model simulated fast, linear advancement in a short period, compared with slow, circular advancement because of the conventional natural diffusion process of populations. Simulation results were comparable to field data observed in the southern peninsula of Korea, matching the rapid advancement of about 400 km to the north area (Seoul) from the south area (Changwon) within six years and expanding across the nation in 10 years. Possible saturation of populations was predicted in the 2020s if survival conditions for the WCSB were favorable and no control efforts were given in field conditions. Dispersal because of SNM notably surpassed the dispersal simulated by LSM when the WCSB population rapidly dispersed over a wide area. The Allee-effect and contribution ratio of SNM were the factors governing the rapid expansion of pest populations. The possibility of using the combined model was further discussed to address different types of human-mediated passive movements associated with population dynamics in forest pest dispersal.
