On May 29, 2015 learn about fire effects and post-fire management plans from resource managers working on the King Fire. The full-day field trip will explore burned areas on the Georgetown District of the fire.
On numerous occasions, a riparian theme has been suggested for the Restoring the West Conference. We listened, and this years theme is Managing for Resilient Riparian Corridors. These areas where water and land meet are vital for water quantity and quality, biological heath and diversity, and social values.
During this Webinar, Dr. Safford will contrast the ecology and temporal trends (historical to current to projected future) of lower montane (oak woodland, yellow pine, mixed conifer) vs. upper montane (red fir) and subalpine forests in the Sierra Nevada, focusing on impacts of three classes of environmental stressors: climate change, wildfire, and invasive species.
Join us in Coeur d'Alene, ID this November 3rd-5th for the Sixth Annual Pacific Northwest Climate Science Conference.
The II International Conference on Fire Behaviour and Risk will be held in Alghero, Italy, from May 26th to 29th, 2015. The Conference aims to involve scientists, researchers and policy makers whose activities are focused on different aspects of fires and their impacts.
The main objectives of the Conference are to:
We have the pleasure to announce the 5th International Conference of Fire Effects on Soil Properties.
The conference aims to:
Scott Goodrick, a research meteorologist with the USDA Forest Service, and Jason Forthofer, a mechanical engineer with the USDA Forest Service, will present a summary of vortices and wildland fire. Vortices are almost always present in the wildland fire environment and can sometimes interact with the fire in unpredictable ways, causing extreme fire behavior and safety concerns.
