From the Executive Summary... 'Changes in policies governing fire in publicly-managed recreation areas have generated concern among federal land management professionals about public acceptance. This concern is compounded by the increasing numbers of people engaged in outdoor…

The high variablility of burning conditions and fuels, found in Alaskan forest fires, produces an associated complex emission of particulate matter. Histological evidence of some large particles has been found in the forest fire plumes as well as aerosols resulting apparently…

An introduction to the spatial and temporal diversity of fire is given for northern circumpolar ecosystems. Both physical and biological parameters make northern ecosystems different from those in temperate regions; these parameters, such as long day length through the summer…

Wild and prescribed fires currently burn about 20,100 ha per year in Washington west of the Cascade Crest: prehistoric wildfires burned an estimated 19,200 ha per year. Modern burning consumes 38 g/m²/yr of fuel; the estimated prehistoric rate was 35 g/m²/yr over a 50-percent…
