Predictive Understanding of Wildfire Ignitions Across the Western United States

“We used over 500,000 wildfire ignition records from 2000 to 2020 to develop machine learning models that predict daily ignition probability across the WUS and incorporate a wide range of

The national Fire and Fire Surrogate study: Effects of fuel treatments in the Western and Eastern United States after 20 years

“The national Fire and Fire Surrogate (FFS) study was initiated more than two decades ago with the goal of evaluating the ecological impacts of mechanical treatments and prescribed fire in

Indigenous Fire Stewardship to Revitalize Disrupted Ecosystems

“This commentary highlights the significance of Bowd et al.’s (2025) study with Wiradjuri and Ngunnawal community members in quantifying the effects of Indigenous Fire Stewardship on plant biocultural diversity in southeastern

Forest restoration treatments increase native plant diversity but open the door to invasion in the Colorado Front Range

“We used a before/after control/impact study design to assess the effects of mechanical forest restoration treatments on forest structure, surface fuels and understory plant composition 1, 5, and 10 years

Methods to assess fire-induced tree mortality: comparing heated water baths to experimental laboratory fires

“We assessed whether heated water baths and experimental laboratory fires caused xylem cell wall deformation and increased vulnerability to embolism.” Read HERE

Spatiotemporal dynamics of fine dead surface fuel moisture content in a Colorado mixed-conifer forest

“In this study, we monitored the spatiotemporal variability in FMC and characterized how controls of FMC vary over a fire season. FMC was sampled at 80 locations 21 times (approximately

Managing pine forest ecosystems after fire: The need of being proactive under future uncertainty

“The resistance-resilience-transition (RRT) framework offers adaptive strategies: resistance aims to preserve existing conditions, resilience focuses on returning to a prior state after disturbance, and transition involves guiding ecosystems toward new,

Limited conifer regeneration but widespread regeneration of aspen seedlings following the Cameron Peak fire, northwestern Colorado

“To understand the potential for severe fire to catalyze shifts to aspen-dominated forests, we studied conifer-dominated forests that burned at high severity….” Read HERE

Burn severity across forest types and burning conditions for forest treatments on the southern rockies Front Range

“We investigated wildfires from southern Wyoming to northern New Mexico to evaluate under what conditions treatments reduce the ecological impacts of fire, as measured by remotely sensed burn severity.” Read
