Abstract
Sudden Oak Death is a disease that affects many species of trees and other plants in the UK and was first discovered on our shores in the early 2000s. It has had a particularly significant (and devastating) effect on larch trees in the west of the UK. National scale management and intervention plans have been in place for several years which have been informed by modelling. I will present the latest findings from this project which look at how the disease has been modelled; where it is predicted to spread to; and what possible interventions options are financially viable.
