This study was established to determine: (1) the effect of a prescribed burn during the spring and summer seasons on wildlife habitat with particular emphasis on bobwhite quail food plants, and (2) the relation between various site and stand factors of the loblolly pine…

This report outlines the development (section 2) and testing (section 3) of a simple mathematical dispersion model, — based on Gaussin plume models for air polution, — for predicting smoke concentration and visibility reduction downwind from prescribed burns in forests. The data…

In Australia the long-term ecolgical consequences of forest practices which lead to nutrient depletion may be very serious. In the absence of fertilization, cumulative nutrient depletion associated with intensive management (involving clear-felling, slash burning, and short…

A note on the features and control of the ground (soil fires that occur at intervals of 5-8 yr in the Soviet Far East. The winter ground fires occur when the snow cover is incomplete, after a warm dry autumn and when the water table is low. These fires often do not affect the…
