While investments in fire suppression technologies have multiplied, opportunities for restoring fire to forested ecosystems under ecologically and socially appropriate conditions have dwindled. Here we feature new research and decision frameworks designed to bridge the divide between place-based fire planning and the national fire management system, leveraging fire and other fuel treatments as tools supporting restoration of functional, resilient forests and communities.
This event is part of a series:
Fire Lab Seminar Series
The Missoula Fire Sciences Laboratory has been hosting an annual seminar series since 1998. Hour-long seminars are presented by Fire Lab employees and other researchers from throughout the world. Seminars cover current research and management about the natural world from a broad range of disciplines, but most seminars usually have a wildland fire theme. The Fire Lab Seminar Series provides a platform for researchers and managers to present their work in an environment that encourages critical thought, the free exchange of ideas, and knowledge discovery. For more information, visit the Fire Lab Seminar Series page.
