SUMMARY:Wildfire Crisis Strategy seminar series
DESCRIPTION:Access the webinar series. \nThe Yellowstone fires of 1988 are considered an early fire event signaling the rise of the wildfire crisis we are experiencing today. After building for decades\, the crisis erupted in the 2000s as wildfires destroyed lives\, homes\, and communities on a rising scale. The national response\, though initially swift\, has not kept pace with the growing impact of catastrophic wildfires. In January 2022\, Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack announced a 10-year strategy for confronting the wildfire crisis in the United States (Confronting the Wildfire Crisis: A Strategy for Protecting Communities and Improving Resilience in America’s Forests). \nAt the core of the strategy is ramping up fuel and forest health treatments across land ownerships to match the scale of wildfire risk. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service and the wildland fire community have laid the foundation for collaboration across landscapes to reduce wildfire risk. Recent influxes in funding\, including new funding authorities in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the Inflation Reduction Act\, are helping fuel and forest health projects hit the ground on priority landscapes and high risk “firesheds.” \nFor decades the Rocky Mountain Research Station has focused on fire science studying topics relevant to wildfire hazard\, risk\, behavior\, and ecology\, and providing knowledge support to land managers and a myriad of partners. The expertise and tools developed over decades by RMRS is now central to providing a scientific basis to addressing the Wildfire Crisis Strategy. This series of hour-long seminars took place January 12 – March 23\, 2023\, to share the individual contributions of RMRS scientists to the Wildfire Crisis Strategy.

SUMMARY:Evolution of fire management and the role of knowledge
DESCRIPTION:View video. \nThe story of how fire managers slowed a fire and benefited the ecosystem. This was accomplished thanks to previous fires that were managed for resource benefit. This is the story of the 2021 Rafael Fire that started just 20 miles outside of Flagstaff\, AZ. On day 2 the fire ran 12 miles towards town\, causing evacuations and worry. Things changed on day 3\, watch the video to learn more. This video contains beautiful drone footage of unhealthy forests and the benefits of fire. Thanks to a shift in fire management\, a bad situation was transformed into a beneficial one.

SUMMARY:Fire\, flood\, and mud: Assessing postfire debris-flow hazards across the western US
DESCRIPTION:Webinar registration. \nParts of the western U.S.\, like southern California and Colorado\, have a history of damaging debris flows after wildfire. Other regions are facing new postfire risks due to expanded wildfire activity. After a wildfire\, emergency managers need rapid answers to the questions: Where in the burn area are debris flows likely? How much rain will it take to cause a problem? And how big will that problem be? \nUsing examples of recent postfire events\, Jason Kean will describe how the U.S. Geological Survey and its partners work to answer those questions. He will also discuss current research to improve debris-flow hazard assessments with new tools to answer the questions: Where will debris flows will travel? How long it will take the burn area to recover? And what are the risks to future fires?

SUMMARY:Increasing post-wildfire planted seedling survival: From experimental plantings to reforestation planning
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nThis presentation examines how post-fire planting success is influenced by climatic\, microclimatic\, topographic\, and biotic factors. Multiple seedling planting experiments across northern New Mexico were evaluated using seedling monitoring\, remote sensing\, drone\, and microclimate data. The results show tree seedling survival in high severity burn patches is largely determined by microclimatic refugia formed by both topographic variation and existing vegetation. Using machine learning and a new index of seedling survival probability\, the most suitable artificial reforestation sites can be mapped for efficient restoration planning. This presentation posits that success rates of reforestation efforts in post-wildfire landscapes could be substantially increased by considering site survivability and suitability.

SUMMARY:California Fire Return Interval Departure database: What it is and how to use it
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nFRID statistics have been used for decades to help managers and scientists understand the ecological consequences of changing fire frequencies. The Forest Service Region 5 Ecology Program worked with UC-Davis to build a spatial FRID data layer that compiles information about fire return intervals for major vegetation types on the 18 National Forests in California and adjacent land jurisdictions. This data layer includes comparisons between pre-Euroamerican settlement (“pre-EAS”) and contemporary fire return intervals (FRIs). The FRID layer may be used for land and resource planning and assessment\, as well as other natural resource applications such as fuels treatment planning\, postfire restoration project design\, management response to fire\, assessing the effects of fire and fire regime change on ecosystems\, and general ecological understanding of the historic and current occurrence of fire on the California National Forests and neighboring jurisdictions. This presentation focuses on the guts of the FRID data and the departure metrics\, describes how to properly use the dataset\, discusses some important caveats\, outlines current updating and improvement work we are doing with the dataset\, and describes a current national effort to develop a similar dataset and metrics for the US.

SUMMARY:New NOAA/NESDIS satellite products for wildland fire applications
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nIn an effort to address key capability gaps\, the NOAA National Environmental Satellite\, Data\, and Information Service (NESDIS) has established a Wildland Fire Program focused on impactful service delivery. NESDIS Wildland Fire Program projects\, aimed at addressing critical active fire capability gaps\, are underway\, with product and service demonstrations expected to begin by July 2023. The improved products are generated using the Next Generation Fire System (NGFS)\, which consists of a sensor agnostic (applicable to geostationary or low earth orbit satellites) active fire algorithm and higher order capabilities\, including alerting\, incident situational awareness tools that are highly tolerant of cloud cover\, and an event-based data model that combines time-resolved satellite fire detections with complementary geospatial data layers. Terrain corrected GOES-R ABI imagery and fire detections have also been developed. In addition\, a lightning prediction model\, customized for incident management\, is under development. With Alaska wildland fire applications in mind\, this presentation will introduce the NESDIS Wildland Fire Program\, highlight product development and demonstration activities\, and facilitate continued dialogue with stakeholders. \nuaf-accap.org/event/wildfire-satellite-applications/

SUMMARY:A west-wide rangeland fuel assessment - Timing is Everything: Season 4\, Episode 2 of Reading the Tea Leaves
DESCRIPTION:View recording. \nIn fire\, fuels weather and topography mean everything. Fuels weather and topography and the timing of these components of the fire triangle must align properly for large fires to occur. Despite uncharacteristically large and continuous fuelbeds in numerous areas\, however\, it’s been a slow start to the fire season in the coterminous US.\nIn this webcast\, Research Ecologist Dr. Matt Reeves analyzes rangeland fuel conditions across the West with an emphasis on how fire weather and rangeland fuels have not yet converged in 2023. All 2022 recordings are located on the Reading the Tea Leaves page.\nProjections are based on Reeves’ Fuelcasting system – a component of the Rangeland Production Monitoring Service that provides projections of expected fuel conditions this grazing season.

SUMMARY:Utah low-tech wet meadow restoration: Virtual workshop
DESCRIPTION:Workshop recordings.  \nWet or mesic meadows are rare but disproportionately important ecosystems in Utah. Gully erosion and channel incision are widespread problems reducing natural resiliency and water storage capacity\, which is impacting wildlife and working lands. Simple\, low-tech restoration methods developed for dry lands of the desert southwest by Bill Zeedyk provide effective tools for protecting and restoring meadow systems. These techniques are cost-effective and hand-built allowing more people to participate in restoration. \nIn this one-day virtual workshop\, Utah land managers and partners will be introduced to: reading the landscape to recognize meadow conservation opportunities\, various low-tech “Zeedyk” structures (e.g.\, One Rock Dams\, Zuni Bowls)\, project planning\, implementation\, and monitoring. Regional instructors will share tips and lessons learned from implementing low-tech meadow restoration projects across the West\, while Utah conservation partners will discuss local opportunities and considerations.

SUMMARY:Wildland Fire Trends Tool: A web-based data visualization tool for displaying wildlife trend and patterns in the western US
DESCRIPTION:Webinar join link. \nPresenter: Douglas J. Shinneman\, Research Ecologist\, USGS Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center \nDescription: Accurately assessing recent and historical wildfire activity is critical for numerous agencies who manage fire-prone landscapes. The Wildland Fire Trends Tool (WFTT) is a data visualization and analysis tool that calculates and displays wildfire trends and patterns for the western U.S. based on user-selected regions of interest\, time periods\, and ecosystem types. For instance\, users can determine whether the area burned by wildfire is increasing or decreasing over time for a specific ecoregion or for land ownership types of interest. The tool is available via a web application and generates a variety of maps\, graphs\, and tabular data that provide useful information for fire science and management objectives\, as well as for the interested public.

SUMMARY:Public experiences and perceptions with wildfire and flooding\, A case study of the 2019 Museum fire
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nDescription: The greater Flagstaff area in northern Arizona has experienced multiple wildfires in recent years that have resulted in post-wildfire flooding. These events galvanized collaborative efforts to reduce hazardous fuels on steep slopes and implement flood mitigation improvements around the city and in the municipal watershed. In this presentation\, the 2019 Museum Fire provides a case study for better understanding how the cascading disturbances of wildfire and post-wildfire flooding\, which can be further compounded by adjacent disturbances like monsoon-related flooding\, impact the public and how residents are informed of\, perceive\, and respond to these risks. This webinar examines findings from two household surveys: one conducted in 2019 immediately following the Museum Fire\, and a follow-up survey conducted in 2022 following flooding associated with the burn scar and monsoonal events. The research presented provides insights into public experiences with and perceptions of wildfires\, post-wildfire flooding\, and forest management more broadly over time\, and offers suggestions for improving the exchange of information between and among agencies and the public to facilitate mutual understanding and enhance adaptive capacity for future wildfires and flood events. \nPresenters: Melanie Colavito\, PhD\, Director of Policy and Communications\, ERI at NAU; Niki vonHedemann\, PhD\, Senior Research Coordinator and Human Dimensions Specialist\, ERI at NAU; and Catrin Edgeley\, PhD\, Assistant Professor\, School of Forestry at NAU
