Book excerpt: Excerpt from Drought Estimation in Southern Forest Fire Control During extended droughts, aerial fuels become more flammable, fire lines are hard to build and hard to hold, fires burn with great intensity and high rate of spread, and sometimes high-intensity fires produce convection columns that spew firebrands for long distances. As examples of what can happen during prolonged periods of little rain, in 1955 and 1956 four fires in the South each burned more than acres. Drought conditions coupled with certain atmospheric conditions caused this excessive loss. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Effects of Drought on Forests and Rangelands in the United States written by James M. Vose and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This assessment provides input to the reauthorized National Integrated Drought Information System (NIDIS) and the National Climate Assessment (NCA), and it establishes the scientific foundation needed to manage for drought resilience and adaptation. Focal areas include drought characterization; drought impacts on forest processes and disturbances such as insect outbreaks and wildfire; and consequences for forest and rangeland values. Drought can be a severe natural disaster with substantial social and economic consequences. Drought becomes most obvious when large-scale changes are observed; however, even moderate drought can have long-lasting impacts on the structure and function of forests and rangelands without these obvious large-scale changes. Large, stand-level impacts of drought are already underway in the West, but all U.S. forests are vulnerable to drought. Drought-associated forest disturbances are expected to increase with climatic change. Management actions can either mitigate or exacerbate the effects of drought. A first principal for increasing resilience and adaptation is to avoid management actions that exacerbate the effects of current or future drought. Options to mitigate drought include altering structural or functional components of vegetation, minimizing drought-mediated disturbance such as wildfire or insect outbreaks, and managing for reliable flow of water.
