Riparian and adjacent upland forests burned synchronously during dry years in eastern Oregon (1650-1900 CE), USA
Year: 2020
Riparian forests link terrestrial and freshwater communities and therefore understanding the landscape context of fire regimes in these forests is critical to fully understanding the landscape ecology. However, few direct studies of fire regimes exist for riparian forests, especially in the landscape context of adjacent upland forests or studies of long-term climate drivers of riparian forest fires. We reconstructed a low-severity fire history from tree rings in 38 1-ha riparian plots and combined them with existing fire histories from 104 adjacent upland plots to yield 2633 fire scars…

Put Fire to Work
Year: 2020
Put Fire to Work is a prescribed fire outreach toolkit for partners and practitionersin Washington and the Pacific Northwest. We invite you to explore, engage and collaborate, and play an active role in bringing good fire back home. This has been put together by the Washington Prescribed Fire Council in collaboration with numerous partners. It has several tools and resources for communication with public and partners about prescribed fire.
