Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summarizes a research project started in 1992 in the Nelson Forest Region of British Columbia to investigate pilot burning and the natural role of fire and the forest. Background information is introduced on fires in the ponderosa pine and interior Douglas fir biogeoclimatic zones in the Region. Research studies are outlined in the areas of fire behaviour and tree mortality, stand structure and understorey vegetation, historical fire ecology, and ecosystem maintenance burns.
Download or read book 1994 Forest Range Recreation Resource Analysis written by British Columbia. Ministry of Forests and published by University of British Columbia Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British Columbia's Ministry of Forests Act requires a forest and range resource analysis to be completed every tenth year after September 30, 1984. This document is the third such analysis, presenting information relevant to current issues in provincial forest resource management as a foundation for developing future resource management policy. After an overview of the province's forest ecosystem, this report introduces important resource values associated with British Columbia forests. Inventories and statistics are provided on areas and volumes of timber harvested and regenerated, range condition and use, forest recreation activity, value of botanical forest products, and supply and demand for timber, range, and recreation resources. The report also describes the timber supply review process and how the annual allowable cut is determined. Finally, it describes provincial forest policy and programs and makes projections of future supply and demand of forest resources.
Download or read book Introduction to Prescribed Fire in Southern Ecosystems written by Thomas A. Waldrop and published by Government Printing Office. This book was released on 2018-03-29 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prescribed burning is an important tool throughout Southern forests, grasslands, and croplands. The need to control fire became evident to allow forests to regenerate. This manual is intended to help resource managers to plan and execute prescribed burns in Southern forests and grasslands. A new appreciation and interest has developed in recent years for using prescribed fire in grasslands, especially hardwood forests, and on steep mountain slopes. Proper planning and execution of prescribed fires are necessary to reduce detrimental effects, such as the impacts on air and downstream water quality.

Download or read book Fire in California s Ecosystems written by Jan W. van Wagtendonk and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2018-06-08 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fire in California’s Ecosystems describes fire in detail—both as an integral natural process in the California landscape and as a growing threat to urban and suburban developments in the state. Written by many of the foremost authorities on the subject, this comprehensive volume is an ideal authoritative reference tool and the foremost synthesis of knowledge on the science, ecology, and management of fire in California. Part One introduces the basics of fire ecology, including overviews of historical fires, vegetation, climate, weather, fire as a physical and ecological process, and fire regimes, and reviews the interactions between fire and the physical, plant, and animal components of the environment. Part Two explores the history and ecology of fire in each of California's nine bioregions. Part Three examines fire management in California during Native American and post-Euro-American settlement and also current issues related to fire policy such as fuel management, watershed management, air quality, invasive plant species, at-risk species, climate change, social dynamics, and the future of fire management. This edition includes critical scientific and management updates and four new chapters on fire weather, fire regimes, climate change, and social dynamics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for protection from uncontrolled fire in California was identified by Abbott Kinney, Chairman of the State Board of Forestry, more than 75 years before the construc-tion of the Riverside Forest Fire Laboratory. With the organization of the USDA Forest Service the need for an effective fire protection organization became apparent. In response, a somewhat fragmented research program got under way in the 19 10's. Although the research was successful in reducing fire damage undermost conditions, severe fire years still made it clear that a strong cohesive fire research effort, headquartered at an adequate laboratory was necessary. However, the Fire Laboratory did not "just happen." It was the result of considerable organized public and private support. During the 50 years prior to the dedication of the Laboratory, and the 25 years since, there has been an effort to balance a pragmatic approach toward dealing directly with the fire manager, and also maintaining scientific excellence. There are currently six research projects at the Laboratory with emphases on fire management and the beneficial use of fire, forest recreation, effects of air pollution on forest ecosystem, and watershed management
