Production possibility frontiers and socioecological tradeoffs for restoration of fire adapted forests

Creator:: Ager, Alan A., Day, Michelle A., and Vogler, Kevin
Abstract:: We used spatial optimization to analyze alternative restoration scenarios and quantify tradeoffs for a large, multifaceted restoration program to restore resiliency to forest landscapes in the western US. We specifically examined tradeoffs between provisional ecosystem services, fire protection, and the amelioration of key ecological stressors. The results revealed that attainment...

Assessing the impacts of federal forest planning on wildfire risk mitigation in the Pacific Northwest, USA

Creator:: Ager, Alan A., Day, Michelle A., Short, Karen C., and Evers, Cody R.
Abstract:: We analyzed the impact of amenity and biodiversity protection as mandated in national forest plans on the implementation of hazardous fuel reduction treatments aimed at protecting the wildland urban interface (WUI) and restoring fire resilient forests. We used simulation modeling to delineate areas on national forests that can potentially transmit...

Mapping Multiple Forest Threats in the Northwestern United States

Creator:: Kline, Jeffrey D., Kerns, Becky K., Day, Michelle A., and Hammer, Roger B.
Abstract:: US forestlands are increasingly subject to disturbances including wildfire, insects and disease, and urban and exurban development. Devising strategies for addressing these "forest threats" depends on anticipating where individual disturbances are most likely and where they might occur in combination. However, many spatial data sets describing forest threats are produced...

Wildfire exposure and fuel management on western US national forests

Creator:: Ager, Alan A., Day, Michelle A., McHugh, Charles W., Short, Karen, Gilbertson-Day, Julie, Finney, Mark A., and Calkin, David E.
Abstract:: Substantial investments in fuel management activities on national forests in the western US are part of a national strategy to reduce human and ecological losses from catastrophic wildfire and create fire resilient landscapes. Prioritizing these investments within and among national forests remains a challenge, partly because a comprehensive assessment that...

Analyzing the transmission of wildfire exposure on a fire-prone landscape in Oregon, USA

Creator:: Ager, Alan A., Day, Michelle A., Finney, Mark A., Vance-Borland, Ken, and Vaillant, Nicole M.
Abstract:: We develop the idea of risk transmission from large wildfires and apply network analyses to understand its importance on a 0.75 million ha US national forest. Wildfires in the western US frequently burn over long distances (e.g., 20-50 km) through highly fragmented landscapes with respect to ownership, fuels, management intensity,...

Prioritization of Forest Restoration Projects: Tradeoffs between Wildfire Protection, Ecological Restoration and Economic Objectives

Creator:: Vogler, Kevin C., Ager, Alan A., Day, Michelle A., Jennings, Michael, and Bailey, John D.
Abstract:: The implementation of US federal forest restoration programs on national forests is a complex process that requires balancing diverse socioecological goals with project economics. Despite both the large geographic scope and substantial investments in restoration projects, a quantitative decision support framework to locate optimal project areas and examine tradeoffs among...

Librarians as Makers

Creator:: Filar Williams, Beth and Folkman, Michelle
Abstract:: Recent trends in librarianship point to themes of crafters, artisans, and makers in library spaces. The American Library Association's Center for the Future of Libraries includes the Maker Movement as one of its trends. Librarians can support these makers and entrepreneurs by thinking of libraries as a place to create...

Who Are You Calling Old? Negotiating Old Age Identity in the Elderly Consumption Ensemble

Creator:: Barnhart, Michelle and Peñaloza, Lisa
Abstract:: As the elderly population increases, more family, friends, and paid service providers assist them with consumption activities in a group that the authors conceptualize as the elderly consumption ensemble (ECE). Interviews with members of eight ECEs demonstrate consumption in advanced age as a group phenomenon rather than an individual one,...

Reproductive phase locking of mosquito populations in response to rainfall frequency

Creator:: Shaman, Jeffrey and Day, Jonathan F.
Abstract:: The frequency of moderate to heavy rainfall events is projected to change in response to global warming. Here we show that these hydrologic changes may have a profound effect on mosquito population dynamics and rates of mosquito-borne disease transmission. We develop a simple model, which treats the mosquito reproductive cycle...

Fuel Reduction, Seeding, and Vegetation in a Juniper Woodland

Creator:: Kerns, B. K. and Day, M. A.
Abstract:: Western juniper has increased in density and distribution in the interior Pacific Northwest since the late 1800s. Management goals for many juniper woodlands are now focused on reducing tree densities and promoting biodiversity, prompting the use of fuel reduction treatments. Fuel reduction often involves mechanical cutting and disturbances such as...
