The past decade has seen an increasing interest in forest management based on historical or natural disturbance dynamics. The rationale is that management that favours landscape compositions and stand structures similar to those found historically should also maintain…

From the text ... 'Early prescribed natural fire efforts were tacitly supported, limited in extent, and carried out under close scrutiny.... Wildland fire use has moved beyond the confines of remote, inaccessible areas. It is expanding across an increasing variety of land use…

Atmospheric particulate matter can be strongly affected by smoke from biomass combustion, including wildfires, prescribed burns, and residential wood burning. Molecular source tracer techniques help determine contributions of biomass smoke to particle concentrations if…
