'In improving a system, one has to design the improvements, experiment and redesign, implement the new system, and evaluate it. I am going to discuss the concepts and constraints we encounter in designing improvements to our systems of appraising fire impact on resource values.'

Emissions from prescribed fire vary geographically. In the Northeast, for example, prescribed fires are rare. In other sections, e.g., the southern Coastal Plain, meteorological conditions, terrain, and light fuel loads minimize atmospheric concentrations of emissions. The…

Man began an intensive program to keep fire out of the woods about 70 years ago. Periodic ground fires once common in western pine forests were reduced, and a stand type that had been open, thrifty, and fairly resistant to wildfires lost those characteristics. The current status…
