Fuel loading and fuel consumption were measured on four prescribed burns with a natural fuel component. These sites were in the Blue Mountains of northeastern Oregon. Emissions were characterized on three of these sites.
The fuel consumption was typical of a moderately wet…

Fire is a natural phenomenon in Madrean Province ecosystems. Suppression of natural fire has altered ecosystem processes, however. Recognition of these alterations has led to the adoption of let-burn policies by many management agencies, but a let-burn policy has become less…
