  • Fuel Treatment Longevity in the Blue Mountains of Oregon

    Creator:
    Morici, Kat
    Abstract:
    Wildland fires are an increasingly extensive, expensive, and frequent occurrence in dry forests of the western United States. Fuel reduction treatments are designed to reduce extreme fire behavior, promote resilient forest structure, and facilitate fire control efforts. Although there is widespread recognition that repeated treatments are needed to maintain desired...

  • LiDAR as Tool for Assessing Hazard Fuel Reduction Projects

    Creator:
    Olszewski, Julia H.
    Abstract:
    Land management practices in much of the western US that included wildland fire suppression have led to greater fuel loads than has been typical of historical fire regimes. In response to the increased wildland fire risk, “restoration” has emerged as a forest management goal. Restoration involves removal of uncharacteristic amounts...

  • Bridging Ways of Knowing to Model the Dynamics of Fire as an Ecocultural Process on Frequent Fire Landscapes of the Pacific Northwest

    Creator:
    Greenler, Skye M.
    Abstract:
    Wildfire impacts have intensified in many ecosystems across the western United States due to the combined impact of fire exclusion, climate change, and land management practices. However, on many of these landscapes, fire is a fundamental ecological process that has shaped vegetation structural and compositional diversity, ecosystem function, landscape pattern,...
