Learning and Burning: FASMEE 2023
zhlédnutí 508Před 2 měsíci
Fire and smoke researchers collaborated with land managers to "learn and burn" from a unique, high-intensity prescribed fire that was conducted to restore aspen forests on the Fishlake National Forest in southern Utah. Led by the Pacific Northwest Research Station, researchers from many agencies and institutions worked with fire managers to safely collect data on fire behavior, smoke compositio...

    We had a technical difficulty in the introduction that I will edit out in the coming weeks, just FYI.

    I apologize for the sound issue where the audio seems to pause for a second throughout the webinar. It doesn't seem to cut out any words, though. I am looking into the issue and hope it is not too distracting.

    Thank you to those that pointed out the audio-video mismatch in the original video post!

    Yes!

    We're familiar with Allan Savory's work. Studies show his conclusions are probably not applicable to high deserts (low precipitation shrub-steppe), but it is wonderful food for thought. Thanks for the comment!

    The key is how many animals are herded together and how you manage their location at the right time of the year.

    I think you all could benefit from listening to what Allan Savory has to say about grazing and the restoration of grass;lands.
