This webinar will go through some of the new and exciting fundamental research being conducted by the Forest Service at the Missoula Fire Sciences Laboratory. About half of the Forest Service budget is spent on fire suppression, yet we still can’t explain exactly how wildland fires spread.
The carbon carrying capacity (CCC) of an ecosystem is determined by prevailing climate and natural disturbance conditions. Projected climate change and increasing area burned have the potential to alter forest CCC. We have been working across several landscapes to quantify the effects of projected climate and wildfire on forest carbon dynamics and the potential for management to mit
NFPA's Conference & Expo is widely regarded as the most comprehensive industry event for countless professionals -- from architects, engineers, contractors, and building managers to public and private fire service, enforcement agencies, insurers, and utilities.
This workshop will help to identify network opportunities, preserve knowledge gained during past wildfire seasons in Washington, and will serve to bridge the gap by creating and building connections.
This TREX, co-hosted by the BLN, USFS, TNC, Lomakatsi and other partners, will take place in the Umpqua Basin of Oregon. Applications are due June 30.

Part of the solution to dealing with the increasing complexity of wildfire management is to reduce uncertainties inherent within active fire management, where time-sensitive decisions often rely upon incomplete information. Breaking out of the wildfire paradox requires aligning the short-term operational objectives of incident responders with the longer term ecological and management obje
