Name:	'Pyrogeography' Across Western North America: How climate Has Affected Fire Regimes and Fire History Across the West, and Where We May Be Going the Future
Description:	Peter Brown, Director of Rocky Mountain Tree Ring Research, will present a webinar on September 27, 1 PM MDT. A recent surge of scientific knowledge and interest in fire climatology derives from two factors: increasing understanding of broad-scale...

Name:	Alaska Fire History Database
Description:	Fourteen existing published and unpublished fire history (or stand age) tree-ring datasets were compiled into the Alaska Fire History Database. For each of the plots in the database, fire dates, possible fire dates, and tree establishment dates were...

Name:	Alaska Large Fire Database
Description:	The Alaska Large Fire Database contains current and historical reported fire locations and fire perimeters (since 1939 and 1942, respectively). It was originally developed during the early 1990s by Nancy French and others from the Environmental...

Name:	Climate Change and Fire Projections in the West: Why the Science Should Matter to Managers
Description:	This webinar examines the relationship between climate and pre-settlement fire patterns, using fire history to gain insight into future fire projections. The main topics discussed include the nature of recent variability in areas burned by fire, how...

Name:	Climate Change and Stress Complexes in Forests of Western North America
Description:	Stress complexes in Western forests are affected by a warmer climate, that is the interaction of fire, drought, insects, etc. can alter the vigor of forest ecosystems and potentially change their structure and function. This webinar will cover the...

Name:	Fire and Forest Dynamics in Northern Boreal Forests
Description:	Current changes in climate are likely to cause changes to the fire regime in Alaska and other boreal regions. How are projected changes in fire regime likely to affect the composition of boreal forests? This presentation summarized research in...

Name:	Fire Mapping Methods Using SAR
Description:	BLM - Alaska Service plans to use SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) images to update all 2009 and 2010 fire perimeters. The quick processing time and small file size will allow for all fire perimeters to be updated after the fire season.

Name:	LANDFIRE National Alaska Webinar Series
Description:	This two part webinar series focused on LANDFIRE National products that are currently available to Alaska. The scope and schedule of the LANDFIRE Refresh project will also be briefly discussed along with many other interesting topics. Part 1 of the...

Name:	Landscape Fire History and Age Structure Patterns in the Sky Islands of Southern Arizona
Description:	Top-down regional climate patterns result in high spatial fire synchrony among Southwest forests. At landscape scales, however bottom-up (topography) patterns are also important in determining fire history and tree age structure variability. The...

Name:	Reconstructing Fire Regimes in Tundra Ecosystems to Inform a Management-Oriented Ecosystem Model
Description:	Charcoal deposits collected from lake sediment in Noatak and the Seward Peninsula were used to quantify fire return intervals in tundra ecosystems and examine the relationships between fire, vegetation, and climate.
