Download Ecological Foundations for Fire Management in North American Forest and Shrubland Ecosystems Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This synthesis provides an ecological foundation for management of the diverse ecosystems and fire regimes of North America, based on scientific principles of fire interactions with vegetation, fuels, and biophysical processes. Although a large amount of scientific data on fire exists, most of those data have been collected at small spatial and temporal scales. Thus, it is challenging to develop consistent science-based plans for large spatial and temporal scales where most fire management and planning occur. Understanding the regional geographic context of fire regimes is critical for developing appropriate and sustainable management strategies and policy. The degree to which human intervention has modified fire frequency, intensity, and severity varies greatly among different ecosystems, and must be considered when planning to alter fuel loads or implement restorative treatments. Detailed discussion of six ecosystems--ponderosa pine forest (western North America), chaparral (California), boreal forest (Alaska and Canada), Great Basin sagebrush (intermountain West), pine and pine-hardwood forests (Southern Appalachian Mountains), and longleaf pine (Southeastern United States)-- illustrates the complexity of fire regimes and that fire management requires a clear regional focus that recognizes where conflicts might exist between fire hazard reduction and resource needs. In some systems, such as ponderosa pine, treatments are usually compatible with both fuel reduction and resource needs, whereas in others, such as chaparral, the potential exists for conflicts that need to be closely evaluated. Managing fire regimes in a changing climate and social environment requires a strong scientific basis for developing fire management and policy.

Land managers have been using mechanical treatments to reduce fuels in ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) forests to mitigate high severity fire effects. Before the 2007 Egley Fire Complex, mechanical thinning, slash and pile burns, and understory burns were implemented as fuel reduction treatments in the dry ponderosa pine-dominated Malheur National Forest in eastern Oregon. To compare post-fire vegetation recovery between mechanical treatments and untreated control areas, 35 treated and untreated paired plots were sampled in 2016. Sites were stratified by elevation, aspect, and the remotely sensed burn severity gradient represented by the delta Normalized Burn Ratio (dNBR). Post-fire vegetation recovery was assessed at the 35 paired field sites by measuring tree density, seedling regeneration, understory plant response, and fuel loads. The intent of this study was to document to what extent tree density, seedling regeneration, understory plant community composition, and fuels change across the burn severity gradient and to quantify to what extent pre-fire fuel treatments affect burn severity and long term (9 years) vegetation recovery. Estimated site recovery time and other implications for management of dry coniferous forests are discussed.
