This session will include information on prescribed fire managers and public relations; the importance of rules and regulations governing the use of fire and why we need to be part of the solution, not part of the problem; standards of conduct and ethics related to the use of…

In the Mediterranean basin, fires are a major concern for forest and shrubland ecosystems. We studied flammability, its seasonality and its relationship with leaf moisture and volatile terpene content and emission in the dominant species of a Mediterranean shrubland and forest…
