SUMMARY:Developing a next-generation wildland fire intelligence platform
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nThere is a compelling business case for additional investment in enhanced data acquisition and analysis to better assess the safety and effectiveness of wildfire management. As a result of long-standing data gaps\, fire management organizations cannot recreate what happened during fire operations\, leading to persistent challenges in: (1) demonstrating the nature and magnitude of suppression investments\, (2) assessing what did and didn’t work\, (3) improving future effectiveness based on what was learned\, and (4) understanding and preventing firefighter injuries and deaths. Credible analysis of the safety and effectiveness of wildfire management requires a clearer understanding of strategic\, tactical\, and operational objectives. Further required is information on firefighting resource location and use at high-resolution spatial and temporal scales. To facilitate timely analysis\, the relevant data need to be archived\, digital\, accessible\, and searchable. In December 2021\, RMRS entered into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with a private company\, Ignis Technologies\, interested in capturing and availing better real-time data and analytics around wildland firefighting response and resource use. We agreed on common goals of (1) enhancing situational awareness with cutting-edge technology and (2) amassing historically elusive data needed to advance research into suppression effectiveness and performance measurement in wildland fire management. This agreement provides a vehicle for greater collaboration with the interagency fire data community. We are currently working with interagency representatives of the National Wildfire Coordinating Group and Wildland Fire Information Technology to ensure that the data captured through our collaborative efforts are incorporated into the Interagency Data Management Environment (IDME)\, which is a modern architecture that enables governed\, self-service analytics across wildland fire.

SUMMARY:Outcomes of spatial targeting in sagebrush country via the Sage Grouse Initiative
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nThe sagebrush biome is one of the largest habitat types in North America\, spanning 175 million acres and home to sage grouse and 350 other species. USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) launched the Sage Grouse Initiative in 2010 to deliver win-win voluntary conservation solutions that support ranchers and other landowners in improving the productivity of their working lands while benefiting sage grouse. The Initiative has successfully addressed key threats impacting sage grouse by focusing on population core areas. Science has helped strategically guide\, refine\, and inform these voluntary\, private lands conservation efforts across 11 western states.

SUMMARY:The Oregon state wildfire hazard map
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nTo enhance Oregon’s wildfire resilience\, the State Legislature passed the 2021 SB 762 Omnibus Wildfire Bill that enacted recommendations from the Governor’s 2019 Wildfire Council. This included a $220M investment in landscape resilience\, suppression response\, as well as some new regulations for the home ignition zone for community protection. Upon release of a map showing statewide hazard\, there was a significant public outcry\, often based on misunderstandings or misinformation\, that ultimately led to the map being rescinded and reworked. Join us for this webinar\, where we will explore the broader intent of the legislation\, its requirements for mapping\, where the effort stands today\, and what we continue to learn from the public’s reaction.

SUMMARY:New standards of practice to guide ecosystem restoration: Views from science and practice
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nThe Society for Ecological Restoration (SER) has co-authored a new set of “Standards of Practice to Guide Ecosystem Restoration”\, launched this year in partnership with the FAO and IUCN-CEM as a contribution to the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. Furthermore\, various principles and standards guidance have been released or are under development since 2019\, including the WWF-SER Mediterranean forest project certification standards\, aiming to verify the quality of field-based restoration projects\, providing guidance\, structure\, and an auditing process for ecological restoration. \nIn this SUPERB/IUFRO Forest Restoration Talk\, organised in collaboration with SER\, George Gann\, SER’s International Policy Lead\, presents an overview of the new Standards of Practice including insights from the Mediterranean project\, discussing how these can support the design\, implementation\, and funding of restoration actions. \nHe is joined by Dr.Michael Kleine\, Deputy Executive Director & Coordinator at IUFRO’s Special Programme for Development of Capacities\, who provides views from a science and training perspective with reference to existing forest-related restoration guidelines\, sharing experiences with implementing some of these on the ground.

SUMMARY:Prescribed burns as a tool to mitigate future wildfire smoke exposures
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nCatastrophic wildfires in the western United States pose significant risks to public health\, infrastructure\, and ecosystems. As these wildfires become more frequent\, there is a growing need for a common methodology to identify suitable locations for prescribed burning aimed at mitigating future wildfire impacts to affected populations and ecosystems. This presentation explores the use of atmospheric chemistry transport modeling\, satellite observations\, and data from land managers to assess the effectiveness of prescribed burning interventions in reducing potential future wildfire smoke exposure. The presenter will offer lessons for states and rural environmental justice communities through a discussion on how implementing preventative prescribed burns in heavily forested areas such as Northern California and the Pacific Northwest may yield substantial net benefits for air quality across the entire western US\, while similar interventions in other states would result in comparatively smaller impacts.

SUMMARY:Rising from ashes: A tribe’s nature-based approach to watershed restoration
DESCRIPTION:Workshop webpage. \nRising from Ashes: A Tribe’s Nature-based Approach to Watershed Restoration will highlight an innovative and iconic case study in public and private collaboration on sovereign tribal lands following a series of catastrophic wildfires. Given the increasing frequency of these fires\, there is a vital need to mitigate destruction through preemptive nature-based restoration practices before disaster strikes. By collaborating with federal agencies and other partners to incorporate indigenous knowledge and values into the recovery planning process\, the Santa Clara Pueblo is working to achieve long-term\, sustainable resiliency of the watershed. \nThe purpose of this Stewardship in Action Field Workshop is not simply to share what was learned by the Santa Clara Pueblo and their many partners\, but also to engage land and water management practitioners from tribal nations\, federal and state agencies\, and nonprofit organizations from around the continent to share information and leverage success for the benefit of local communities. \nThe agenda features three days of content featuring both indoor presentations and field experiences. Sessions will explore public and private collaboration on sovereign tribal lands\, process-based restoration and watershed resilience\, forestry and fire management\, sediment stabilization\, native plant restoration\, indigenous knowledge\, nature-based solutions\, and preparing for future climate impacts by working together.

SUMMARY:Grassification and fast-evolving fire connectivity and risk in the Sonoran Desert
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording \nIn the southwestern United States\, non-native grass invasions have increased wildfire occurrence in deserts and the likelihood of fire spread to and from other biomes. Wildfires were historically small and infrequent in the warm deserts of western North America\, with minimal impact on the desert vegetation. In recent decades\, the fire regime has shifted with the spread of non-native grasses. Fires are increasingly burning large areas in desert habitats\, largely driven by grassification\, the physiognomic conversion of shrublands to grassland by non-native grass invasions. This conversion is especially concentrated at the upper elevational and northern latitudinal boundaries of the Sonoran Desert\, which are transition zones to adjacent fire-prone biomes.

SUMMARY:Fires of unusual size: Does it mean what you think it means
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nFires of Unusual Size (FOUS) are large fires that exhibit at least one rapid growth event\, and keep growing after that. While “megafire” is widely used and has no specific definition\, FOUS are defined by specific characteristics. We can count how many happen each year\, and we can ask scientific questions about how they differ from other fires. What makes them so big? What triggered the big growth event(s)? Are they increasing each year? Brian Potter\, Research Meteorologist with the Pacific Northwest Research Station\, will talk about the trends\, look at how weather influences their growth\, and give some examples of unanswered questions about them.
