Insights provided by a new searchable repository for post-fire hydrology studies and associated data
Year: 2025
BackgroundAs the number and size of wildfires increase worldwide, so too has the realization that wildfires and hydrology are closely linked. The field of post-fire hydrology has been growing in recent decades, but the resultant datasets and studies are spread across disparate repositories and can be difficult for researchers and decision-makers to access.ResultsTo help address this issue, we have created searchable lists of literature, datasets, and models related to post-fire hydrology which can be accessed—and added to—by any interested members of the…

Songbird response to wildfire in mixed-conifer forest in south-western Oregon
Year: 2014
We used 1 year of pre-fire and 4 years of post-fire data to quantify changes in the occurrence of birds at burned and unburned sites in a southern Oregon watershed after a 2500-ha wildfire. Our objectives were to identify bird species that increased or decreased as a result of this mixed-severity fire. Of the 27 species we investigated, we found evidence for fire-induced changes in the proportion of sites occupied by 13 species. Of these, most (8 species) were species that occurred at fewer sites after the fire than before. These changes were consistent with changes in vegetation composition…
