Flow permanence in stream networks is a critical driver of water quality, in-stream and riparian ecological processes, and downstream water availability. We know remarkably little, however, about how water is distributed across landscapes and how water availability changes in space and time in relation to land cover, geologic, and climatic drivers.
Have you ever struggled to explain why your science matters to a non-scientist? Have you ever been frustrated at the way science is covered in general media and used in policy? Have you wondered just what they’re teaching about science these days? We don’t have all the answers, but we can try to help!
Join us to learn about planning and implementing prescribed fire on private lands. You’ll also have the opportunity to meet ranchers and woodland owners from Nebraska, Iowa, and Oregon who are using prescribed fire to restore and improve their lands. Field trips both days include visits to recently burned areas.

A short film and discussion that combines research perspectives and personal stories about the devastating effects of two megafires in Washington during the summers of 2014 and 2015.
How can we be better prepared for wildfires while living in a fire prone environment? Why do we see more extreme fire behavior when wildfires ignite?
The Society of American Foresters (SAF) and the Intertribal Timber Council (ITC) invite you to attend our first conference to learn about tribal forestry visions and practices, and explore ways in which you and your organization can create, maintain, and improve partnerships. Together, these two organizations are committed to preserving and sustaining our working forestlands.
Join us in supporting and/or attending the National Cohesive Wildland Fire Management Strategy Workshop—All Hands, All Lands: "Implementation" Rooted in Science being held in RENO, NEVADA IN APRIL 2017.
WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES -
The Eastern Forest Environmental Threat Assessment Centerhosts First Friday All Climate Change Talks (FFACCTs), monthly information sharing forums featuring presentations about research activities focused on climate change impacts to forest ecosystems. USDA Forest Service scientists and partners participate in the web-based meeting on the first Friday of every month.
