SUMMARY:Adapting Together: Shaping the Future of Fire in the Northwest
DESCRIPTION:Workshop website. \nAs new fire policies and adaptation strategies have grown across the Northwest\, it is essential that we work together to learn\, share and craft actionable visions. ADAPTING TOGETHER focuses on diverse approaches to place-based wildfire adaptation within and across this region. \nBy bringing people together from diverse sectors\, geographies\, and cultures\, we will delve into the following questions: \nWhat kinds of place-based adaptation are happening around the broader Northwest\, and what capacity and resources do they require?\nHow do we maintain and grow a focus on fire’s ecological and cultural roles while protecting communities?\nWhat kinds of local partnerships\, economic strategies and policies will help us become more fire-adapted?\nIn the next five and ten years\, who needs to work together and how so that we can collectively coexist with fire?\nFire adaptation is a big puzzle with many pieces. This workshop explores these questions through selected topics to offer reframings\, new conversations\, creative ideas and meaningful connections. \nParticipants will… \nShare their personal experiences\, perspectives\, and ideas on the workshop’s themes and guiding questions.\nBuild relationships\, learn with peers\, and leave with new connections.\nContribute to fire adaptation practice in the region by visioning the future of how we live with wildfire.\nThe workshop begins at 1:30 p.m. on March 4th and ends around noon on March 6th. Expect a mix of panels\, learning circles\, case studies\, interactive activities and informal time to connect.

SUMMARY:Insights from wildfire research: Air quality\, monitoring technologies\, and post-fire soils
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nSummary: Graduate students will have 15 mins each to present their research on three topics from the Desert Research Institute’s Harnessing the Data Revolution for Fire Science (HDRFS) project\, followed by discussion. The topics and presenters are: \nIndividual presentations and presenters: \nAir quality and wildfire smoke – Bianca Martinez \nThis talk shares results from experimental burning of Great Basin vegetation\, including the type and amount of air pollutants released\, and combustion conditions. The findings of this research are relevant to prescribed fire and fuel treatment planning\, and improving smoke management and public warnings. \nTechnology for real-time monitoring over large distances – Jehren Boehm \nThis work focuses real-time monitoring of air\, snow\, and soil conditions with greater spatial resolution and lower cost. By leveraging existing fire camera networks with robust power systems and reliable internet connectivity\, widely distributed low-cost wireless sensors can fill knowledge gaps that would otherwise rely on modeling. \nPost-fire soils and water repellency – Conor Croskery \nThis research is focused on determining if water repellent soils are present in sagebrush ecosystems before wildfire\, how the distribution of these soils changes after fire\, and if there is a relationship between how much water can be stored in the soil if water repellent soils are present after fire.

SUMMARY:From data to decisions: Using co-production and Ecological Site Groups to build State-and-Transition Models for management in pinyon-juniper ecosystems of the Colorado Plateau
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nPresenter: Tara Bishop\, Utah Valley University\nPanelists: Mike Duniway and John Severson\, U.S. Geological Survey \nSummary: Managing fire and fuels in Colorado Plateau pinyon-juniper woodlands and shrublands remains challenging as land managers navigate complex questions about where treatments will be most effective and what outcomes to expect under different conditions. In this webinar\, speakers from Utah Valley University and the U.S. Geological Survey will present outcomes from a Joint Fire Sciences Program project that used a collaborative co-production approach with land managers to develop data-driven State-and-Transition Models for fire-prone Ecological Site Groups in the Upper Colorado River Basin. By integrating 37 years of Landsat imagery with extensive federal monitoring data and new field-collected fuel measurements\, the team mapped ecological states through time and quantified how fire severity\, drought\, and other drivers influence vegetation trajectories across the landscape. The presentation will show how these Ecological Site Group State-and-Transition Models\, along with the publicly available datasets and reproducible workflows developed through this project\, can inform landscape-scale planning decisions from identifying priority treatment areas to understanding likely post-fire outcomes\, supporting more strategic approaches to fire risk reduction\, fuels treatments\, and post-fire restoration across western rangelands.

SUMMARY:Contrasting LANDFIRE with fractional vegetation cover data (RCMAP and RAP)
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nPresenters: Matthew Rigge\, Josh Picotte\, Jon Dewitz\, Sarah McCord \nThe use of Landsat remote sensing-based vegetation classifications has expanded in recent years as product accuracy and accessibility have increased. With the proliferation of available datasets\, users often face questions such as 1) the “best” or most appropriate dataset to use for a particular application\, 2) differences in project objectives\, 3) how to consider discrepancies among datasets\, and 4) the reliability of a product within a specific local study area. We will consider these questions in the context of commonly used datasets from LANDFIRE\, RCMAP (Rangeland Condition Monitoring Assess. & Projection)\, and RAP (Rangelands Analysis Platform).

SUMMARY:Northwest weed biocontrol in changing environments
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nWe will begin with a brief overview of weed biocontrol\, and then discuss how climate change may impact biocontrol systems at different stages of planning and implementation. Our speakers will highlight as examples the control agents and their host dynamics for Hypericum perforatum\, Lythrum salicaria\, and Reynoutria spp. \nThis event will also serve as the launching point for a working group to address knowledge gaps around Northwest biocontrol in a changing climate\, including modeling population dynamics and geographic distributions of agents under different climate scenarios and developing a framework for collecting data to disentangle climate impacts from other drivers of population dynamics. Other potential working group topics include disruption in the phenological synchrony of agent and host and evolutionary changes in response to climate change.

SUMMARY:A sensory portrait of wildland fire
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nPeople usually focus on the visual aspects of fire\, and the smell of smoke\, but we rarely appreciate how we use\, or should use\, our other senses to describe or even identify fire effects. Sound is a fundamental part of our experience when interacting with the world around us and is so fundamental that we often forget to question what it is we are really hearing. Our long relationship with all aspects of fire\, including the sounds of fire\, are deeply intuitive and yet also elusive. What is creating the crackling sound we hear when vegetation burns? What is that sound really telling us about the exchange between vegetation and fire? What sounds are involved that lead to a safe or unsettling feeling when around wildland fire? In this Panel we will take a dive into the acoustical dance between vegetation and fire\, where is this sound really coming from and what is it really telling us\, and what else is going on besides what we hear.

SUMMARY:Aspen interactions with fire and wildfire spread in the southwestern US
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nFrom disease resilience to browse pressure\, recreational value to fire resistance\, aspen has been getting a lot of attention over the past few years. If you have ever wondered about how aspen interacts with fire or how aspen fits into fire planning and suppression\, please join us for this webinar from the Southwest Fire Science Consortium where we will dive into various aspects of fire-aspen interactions. Topics will include: the ability of aspen to slow fire growth and act as a firebreak\, fire radiative power/burn severity in aspen forests of the Southern Rockies\, and the relationship between stand composition and suppression strategies – whether fire lines are more likely to hold when built through aspen. \nSpeakers: Matt Harris\, Western Colorado University; Max Cook\, University of Colorado Boulder; and Trevor Carter\, Colorado State University

SUMMARY:Tree-rings reveal the legacy of Indigenous cultural burning in the Southwest
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nStudying the influence of Indigenous people on ancient and historical fire regimes has been methodologically challenging. In the Southwest United States\, well-replicated fire histories suggest that abundant lightning and suitable climate conditions drove frequent low-severity wildfires in dry pine forests independent of human activities even as ethnography provided hints that highly mobile indigenous populations used fire in myriad land use contexts. In this webinar Dr. Christopher Roos uses published and unpublished tree-ring fire history records from pine forests in Arizona and New Mexico to demonstrate that Indigenous foragers\, pastoralists\, and farmers influenced southwestern fire regimes in similar ways. This research shows that population size\, culture\, and economic organization were not limiting variables on the influence of Indigenous populations on fire regimes and that new methodological approaches may offer new insights into long histories of Indigenous fire stewardship that can contribute to discourse on contemporary fire management\, fire-co-management\, and restoration of traditional fire management practices.

SUMMARY:Prescribed fire in winegrower country: How much smoke is too much?
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording. \nPrescribed fire plays a vital role in protecting California vineyards from the growing risk of wildfires. Still\, vintners know firsthand the concerns that smoke can raise during sensitive periods of grape development. On November 5th\, CAL FIRE\, in partnership with CWI and regional experts\, invites California winegrowers\, fire practitioners\, agencies\, and anyone interested in smoke issues around the vintner community to join a special webinar focused on smoke awareness and communication. Together\, we’ll share the latest information on prescribed fire practices\, notification processes\, and smoke management tools\, while highlighting how local fire agencies and FireWise communities are working to strengthen coordination with the wine industry. \nThis interactive session will give California vintners the opportunity to hear directly from fire practitioners\, learn strategies to minimize smoke impacts\, and build connections with the people shaping prescribed fire efforts in the region. The conversation will also help set the stage for a larger in-person convening in spring 2026\, where winegrowers and fire leaders will continue to work together on solutions that support both vineyard health and regional resilience.

SUMMARY:Science-management partnership to reduce human-caused large wildfire in the southwest: Lessons and paths
DESCRIPTION:Webinar recording (57:57)  \nThe size and frequency of human-caused large wildfires continues to increase across the U.S. Southwest due to an array of evolving social and ecological conditions. Evidence-based prevention strategies are urgently needed\, but foundational research that bridges geospatial and social data to inform these efforts is scarce. Achieving a substantial reduction in human-caused large wildfires also requires effective science-management partnerships that promote interventions grounded in best available science. In this webinar\, speakers present an assortment of interconnected studies across Arizona and New Mexico that were developed in partnership with federal\, state\, and local prevention staff to address these needs. This includes key findings from GIS analyses\, surveys\, interviews\, and focus groups with community members and practitioners that highlight existing successes and opportunities to strengthen human-caused wildfire prevention moving forward. \nPresenters: Catrin Edgeley\, Assistant Professor\, Utah State University; Zander Evans\, Executive Director\, Forest Stewards Guild; Sarah Devenport\, Human Dimensions Specialist\, Ecological Restoration Institute; Gabe Kohler\, Renew Forest Works LLC
