Recent research makes clear that much of the Everglade's flora and fauna have evolved to tolerate or require frequent fires. Nevertheless, restoration of the Everglades has thus far been conceptualized as primarily a water reallocation project. These two forces are directly…

As fire policy and management take on a greater role in land agencies, a better understanding is needed of public opinion, particularly of homeowners who are most affected by wildland fires. This research assessed homeowners' attitudes toward three fuel management approaches -…
