NON-INDUSTRIAL PRIVATE FOREST LANDOWNER ENGAGEMENT AND AMENITY- DRIVEN MIGRATION IN WILDFIRE-PRONE LANDSCAPES OF THE INLAND NORTHWEST
Rural counties in the Inland Northwest have a ‘working lands’ culture that supports livelihoods dependent on the health of wildfire-prone private and public forests. Wildfires threaten economic…
Temporal and spatial patterns in fire occurrence during the establishment of mixed-oak forests in eastern North America
Abstract Question: What was the role of fire during the establishment of the current overstory (ca. 1870-1940) in mixed-oak forests of eastern North America? Location: Nine sites representing a…
