| Archived Webinar | Fieldwork from Afar Using Remote Sensing Tools to Inventory Fuels and Fire Behavior Date Published The idea of using sensors to remotely measure things is not new. Aerial photos taken from hot air balloons were first proposed as a tool for mapping streets in the 1850s. In1941, a US Forest Service ranger developed a technique for mapping fuels with aeria lphotos. Recent advances in remote sensing have dramatically increased the amount of spatial information that can be generated for a given… |
| Archived Webinar | 3D Fuel Characterization for Modeling of Wildland Fire Behavior & Smoke Date Published Rapid advancements in wildland fire modeling are promoting innovations in how we characterize and map wildland fuels. Before these models can be widely used, more research on fuel characterization and mapping methods is needed to support3D model inputs. The 3D Fuels Project is characterizing surface and canopy fuels on pine-dominated sites in the southeastern and western United States and… |
| Archived Webinar | Managing Fire for Water: Lessons Learned from Watershed Protection Partnerships for Wildfire Risk Reduction Date Published Among the values at risk from wildfire are community drinking water supplies, as forested watersheds on public land are often a primary or significant source of drinking water. In some places across the West, watershed protection partnerships have formed to address this threat by bringing together the stakeholders of these watersheds for collaborative planning and investment in source water… |
