To trully allow fires to play their natural role in wilderness ecosystems, it is sometimes necessary to have large fires of long duration. Large fires are ecologically significant events that drive many other ecosystem processes. However, these fires pose significant management…

From the text ... 'Wilderness management is important to a large segment of the public. The 1988 fires showed that clearly. It is also clear that fire is an integral part of the wilderness. Educating the public, based on solid research, will be an important component of…

Area burned and smoke emissions were compared between the presettlement period (before 1935) and the recent period (1979-90) of prescribed natural fire in the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness. Presettlement area burned was estimated to be 1.7 times that during the recent period. By…

The character of most southern forest ecosystems has been shaped by fire. Indians and early settlers fired the woods for many purposes. After a period of attempted fire exclusion, foresters recognized the necessity of fire by prescription in southern pine cover types. This paper…
