Wildfire directly changes the physical properties of Earth’s critical zone, which leads to catastrophic changes in ecological and hydrological processes (Shakesby & Doerr, 2006). Uncontrolled wildfire in forested headwater catchments often…
This system is intended to assist fire managers and analysts in making strategic and tactical decisions for fire incidents. It is designed to replace the WFSA (Wildland Fire Situation Analysis), Wildland Fire Implementation Plan (WFIP), and Long-…
The primary objective of the National Landslide Hazards Program is to reduce long-term losses from landslide hazards by improving our understanding of the causes of ground failure and suggesting mitigation strategies.
In the spring of 2017 the Advanced Fire Environment Learning Unit asked Mark Finney to provide some thoughts regarding different topics related to fire behavior modeling. There are pitfalls analysts can run into when running the models, Mark has…
Here in the American West, a new generation of wildfires has become part of daily life. As the climate continues to warm and drought becomes more prolonged, our wildfire risk will continue to increase.
The first step to reducing exposure to harm…
The National Wildfire Coordinating Group provides national leadership to enable interoperable wildland fire operations among federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial partners. Primary objectives include: •Establish national interagency…

This website provides information for projects funded by the FHP Whitebark Pine Restoration Program, arranged by year. Each report follows a similar format that concisely communicates the objectives and outcome with detailed information available as…
USGS has been a leader in sagebrush steppe ecosystem research and continues to meet the priority science needs of management agencies. We bring a diversity of expertise and capabilities to address a wide variety of science needs at multiple spatial…
Fire resistance traits drive tree species composition in surface‐fire ecosystems, but how they covary at different scales of variation and with the environment is not well documented. We assessed the covariation of bark thickness (BT), tree height,…

What is the Intertribal Timber Council (ITC)?
Established in 1976, the ITC is a nonprofit nation-wide consortium of Indian Tribes, Alaska Native Corporations, and…
FFI (FEAT/FIREMON Integrated) is a monitoring software tool designed to assist managers with collection, storage and analysis of ecological information. It was constructed through a complementary integration of the Fire Ecology Assessment Tool (FEAT…
Our research is focused on understanding the dynamics of fire regimes at relatively broad scales, and our extension work involves applying this information to ecosystem management. Students and staff in the lab work and publish on a wide variety of…
