SUMMARY:6th Annual Nevada Native Seed Forum
DESCRIPTION:Forum presentations. \nSessions include a variety of native seed topics including permits\, collection\, production\, testing\, certification\, storage\, marketing and restoration.  \n“The goal of the forum was to bring growers and stakeholders together to discuss cultivation and native seed availability to help facilitate the success and expansion of native seed suppliers in Nevada\,” said Meghan Brown\, deputy administrator for the Division of Plant Health and Compliance at the Nevada Department of Agriculture\, a member of the NNSP. \nNative seeds refer to plant seeds native to Nevada landscapes\, cultivated in this climate. These seeds can acclimate to Nevada’s unique environment\, increasing the plant’s chances of survival. The NDA supports the industry by providing wildland seed certification services and ensuring Nevada native seeds maintain purity for use in land restoration efforts. These rehabilitation projects are completed by land management agencies or landowners in response to devastating land impacts from wildfires\, invasive species\, land development\, among other activities that result in surface disturbance. Restoration efforts are critical to protecting wildlife habitat\, supporting diverse land use\, and mitigating future wildfire impacts. \n“NNSP has worked to increase availability of native grown seed for restoration projects\,” said Brown. “We’re excited to announce new resources to better connect growers with native seeds and assistance.” \n

SUMMARY:OBIWAN app: Estimating property-level carbon storage using NASA's GEDI Lidar
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nPresented by: Sean Healey and Zhiqiang Yang \nForest managers increasingly require statistically grounded estimates of forest carbon storage at the resolution of individual ownerships (a few thousand acres). Carbon offset markets and general recognition of climate change mitigation as an ecosystem service provide incentive for monitoring carbon\, but stand exams are costly\, and varying methods may reduce comparability across ownerships. NASA’s GEDI mission provides high-quality lidar data across the country\, and the Forest Service’s OBIWAN tool (Online Biomass Inference using Waveforms and iNventory) allows owners to generate and document GEDI-based estimates of mean carbon storage for their own land.

SUMMARY:Modern approach to quantifying ungulate carrying capacity
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nPresented by: Matt Reeves \nEstimating the number of animals that can be sustainably supported depends on numerous factors such as forage quantities\, terrain\, distance from water\, and the type of vegetation being considered. Historically most approaches to conducting capacity estimates were limited by a paucity of spatially explicit data describing these factors. However\, recent advances in remotely sensed data products and modelling ideas have improved our ability to refine these estimates and do it consistently across all lands which has significant implications for future land management plans such as Allotment Management Plans and Annual Operating Instructions (AOI) for federally managed grazing allotments. In this presentation we demonstrate application of our modernized modelling approach and present results of our recent assessment of wild horse and burro capacity in California.

SUMMARY:Aviation Use Summary (AUS): Analytics to inform decisions and manage wildfire risk
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nPresented by: Crystal Stonesifer \nAircraft are important fire management tools\, but their use can bring substantial costs and associated risks. We developed the Aviation Use Summary (AUS)\, which is a decision support framework to help track the location\, timing\, and amount of aircraft use in fire suppression; this information is presented in a way that helps guide decision makers through a structured risk assessment and a repeatable check-in process. Extensive use in large fire support has demonstrated the effectiveness of the framework\, related limitations\, and potential for future improvements and broad adoption in fire management. \n

SUMMARY:Science and management of wildfire\, fish\, and water resources in the western US
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \n\n\nWildfire has increased 20-fold in the last 30 years in the Western U.S.\, partly due to climate change and partly due to forest and fire management practices. At the same time\, many water resources are drying up. And fish populations throughout the western US are struggling due to water diversions\, instream barriers\, invasive species\, and dwindling flows. This talk will integrate across these three big\, converging problems\, reframing the role of wildfire in western ecosystems\, discussing how wildfire\, fish\, and water resource problems are interrelated\, and proposing solutions that match the scale of the problem.

SUMMARY:Invasion\, fire\, and the future of NW wildlands: Ventenata dubia in the Blue Mtns Ecoregion
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nIn this deep dive webinar\, Dr. Becky Kerns and collaborating scientists will present and synthesize results from a Joint Fire Science funded project aimed at understanding the current and future Ventenata dubia (ventenata) invasion in the Blue Mountains Ecoregion. Wildfires in 2014 and 2015 in the ecoregion reportedly spread in an unusual fashion owing to this invasive annual grass. Concern was raised that ventenata might be a “game-changer” for wildfire. Results from our studies show that ventenata has ecosystem transformation potential and influences landscape-scale fire across the ecoregion. In this webinar we report these findings and the management implications\, as well as place our results in the context of other plant invasion research. The webinar includes 90 minutes of scientific presentations with short Q&A\, and ends with a 30-minute wrap up and panel discussion. Talks will adhere to the following agenda to allow attendees to join and leave the meeting for specific talks\, if desired. \n

SUMMARY:CA-NV Winter Status Update Webinar (Jan 2022)
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nAccording to the January 18 U.S. Drought Monitor\, 99.6% of CA/NV is in drought\, with 9.8% in Extreme (D3) or Exceptional (D4) Drought. The area in D3/D4 is down from 69.9% just one month ago\, reflecting the barrage of storms that have brought rain and snow to the region since mid-fall. These storms have improved conditions but have not ended the drought. The current drought developed over many months to years and left huge water deficits.

SUMMARY:Exploring innovation in a public land grazing system (7:17)
DESCRIPTION:View short video. \nIn small communities like Plush\, Oregon\, where “The Need for Flexibility: Exploring Innovation in a Public Land Grazing System” was filmed\, agriculture is a major economic contributor. Benefits extend far beyond the actual animal unit months provided to the producer. The creation of local jobs\, community investments\, and the stability provided by a balanced and documented approach to resource management all help foster resiliency in communities across the West. The Bureau of Land Management’s Outcome-based Grazing program offers a more collaborative approach between the BLM and its partners within the livestock grazing community when issuing grazing authorizations permits. The program allows for necessary\, timely grazing adjustments that benefit the health of the rangeland for wildlife as well as its availability of forage for livestock.

SUMMARY:Developing divergent\, plausible\, and relevant climate futures for near- and long-term resource planning
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nIt seems the effects of climate change were all too clear in 2021. Yet\, we know more change is expected. When trying to adapt to a changing climate\, with all the inherent uncertainties about how the future may play out\, resource managers often turn to scenario planning as a tool. Managers use scenario planning to explore plausible ways the climate may change\, allowing them to work with climate change uncertainty rather than being paralyzed by it. Once identified\, scenarios of the future are used to develop proactive measures to prepare for and adapt to scenarios of change. \nA key part of scenario planning is generating a list of potential future climates we may deal with. These ‘climate futures’ serve as the foundation of each scenario explored in the planning process. For example\, managers consider how they would respond to a warm\, wet versus a hot\, dry future. This webinar will describe and compare three approaches to generate the climate futures that feed into the scenario planning process. In doing so\, this work identifies an approach to developing climate futures that captures a broad range of climate conditions (a key ingredient to developing scenarios) across both near and long-term planning horizons.

DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nThe increasing incidence of large wildfires with extensive stand-replacing effects across the southwestern United States is altering the contemporary forest management template within historically frequent-fire conifer forests. While management of fire-excluded forests continues to be a priority for land managers\, an increasing fraction of western conifer forests have recently burned. Many of these burned landscapes contain complex mosaics of surviving forest and severely-burned patches without surviving or regenerating conifer trees. In such complex landscapes\, postfire management decisions may be more effective when based on a spatially-explicit assessment of the mosaic of surviving forest and severely burned patches. Such a decision-making framework includes detailed considerations both for postfire fuels management\, e.g.\, edge hardening of surviving forest patches and repeat burning\, and for postfire reforestation\, e.g.\, nucleation planting strategies to establish “islands” of seed trees\, spatial planning to optimize reforestation success\, tradeoffs between intensive and extensive tree planting\, and improving nursery capacity. The decision-making framework developed here can be integrated with existing postfire management infrastructure to optimize allocation of limited resources while not abandoning recently burned landscapes\, which will continue to expand in a future of increasing fire activity.

SUMMARY:Residents’ perspectives on Colorado’s 2020 Cameron Peak Fire
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nThe 2020 Cameron Peak Fire burned more than 200\,000 acres of public and private land in northern Colorado making it the largest fire recorded in Colorado’s history. Extreme fire behavior driven by dense and dry fuels\, steep terrain\, and weather and climatic factors greatly affected the range of potential management strategies. Many different communities were affected by the fire from smoke\, repeated and long-term evacuations\, emotional distress\, and property impacts. Social science researchers at Colorado State University\, in conjunction with the USDA Rocky Mountain Research Station\, interviewed more than 50 landowners and residents in communities directly impacted by the Cameron Peak Fire to understand and share their experiences and perspectives. Join this webinar to learn about people’s attitudes on the communication and fire management strategies\, their perceptions of post-fire landscape recovery and forest health\, and their support for future forest and fire management.
