SUMMARY:Wildlife and Fire: Improving Habitat Management Through Monitoring and Adaptation
DESCRIPTION:In January\, the Southwest Fire Science Consortium\, USDA Forest Service\, Southwest Climate Adaptation Science Center\, and many other partners hosted a two-day workshop on the intersection of wildlife and fire. Based on the needs identified in the workshop\, this collaborative group is hosting a yearlong series of workshops\, webinars\, and reports to improve wildlife outcomes in the face of fire and climate change. This series is intended to help researchers and practitioners across fire and wildlife disciplines exchange ideas\, tools\, and lessons to address the rapid pace and scale of fire management. \nIn the third webinar of this series\, a panel of experts will discuss informing wildlife habitat management through monitoring and adaptation at the intersection of fire\, climate change\, and human encroachment. Topics include the how monitoring may be expanded to the big picture – habitat associations\, animal distributions across space and time\, and the associated changes therein – by harnessing “big data”; monitoring frameworks for addressing vulnerability of wildlife and their habitats to climate change using MSO as an example; using the study of animal movement in response to changing fire regimes to inform conservation and human-wildlife coexistence; and holistic management of wildlife habitat when addressing fuels reduction\, especially in pinyon juniper ecosystems. Please join us on June 11 to learn more about informed wildlife habitat management through monitoring. \nRegister: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYvdOmrpjIoEt2MMF_oWoGTxS0aL8-MQwps#/registration \nPanelists: Valerie Stein\, US Forest Service; Andrew Stillman\, Cornell Lab of Ornithology Center for Avian Population Studies; Rachel Blakey\, Cal Poly Pomona – Department of Biological Sciences; Josh Goldberg\, Pacific Northwest Research Station

SUMMARY:Fire in the Southwest – Fire Season 2023 Overview and 2024 Outlook
DESCRIPTION:Wildfire is part of the landscape in the Southwest. It can be a threat to lives and property\, but it is also crucial to maintaining healthy ecosystems. Please join the Southwest Fire Science Consortium for a webinar reviewing the top 8 biggest fires in the region in 2023 and looking ahead toward fire conditions for summer 2024. Zander Evans will place the 2023 fire season within the context of the last 10 years\, pointing out trends and outliers in the timing\, management costs\, vegetation\, and burn severity for each of 8 Southwestern fires larger than 10\,000 acres. Rich Naden will discuss the fire season outlook and summer weather forecast for the Southwest in 2024. This webinar sets the stage for the publication of “2023 Wildfire Season: An Overview Southwestern US”\, the eleventh in a series of annual overviews available from the Southwest Fire Science Consortium and the Ecological Restoration Institute. \nRegister: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZEvdOChqj8vEtIhOBYZ-xNAziBcZ5UYezKp#/registration \nPresenters: Dr. Zander Evans\, Executive Director\, and Mike Lynch\, Midwest Region Director with the Forest Stewards Guild; Richard Naden\, Fire Weather Meteorologist with the National Park Service

SUMMARY:Panel Discussion: An Evolution in Thinking About Fire
DESCRIPTION:In 2023\, fire managers on the San Juan National Forest in southern CO and their partners faced many of the same challenges they face every summer; however\, this fire season\, they chose to react differently. By embracing different ways of thinking about fire and communicating difficult tradeoffs effectively with partners\, forest officials improved relationships and aligned support through several large\, long duration events. In this 90-minute panel discussion\, SJNF fire managers follow up on a just-released documentary video of the same name to reflect on 2023 fire response decisions and discuss how reflexive thinking obscured certain management opportunities. Their experience models ‘an evolution\,’ a shift toward more nuanced\, risk-informed\, and strategic fire response\, and it informs ongoing research around fire and risk decisions. This panel discussion provides an opportunity to engage with these managers and learn from their experience and shift toward more nuanced\, risk-informed\, and strategic fire response. \nPresenters: Josh Peck\, Pagosa District Ranger; Pat Seekins\, Fuels Program Manager; Tracy Milakovic\, Pagosa Fire Management Officer; Lorena Williams\, Public Affairs Specialist; Dana Guinn\, Southwest Partnership Manager (Forest Stewards Guild) \nPrior to joining us on May 16\, please watch the full ‘Evolution in Thinking’ video around which this presentation is centered: https://usda-fs.wistia.com/medias/0g0ertfeo6

SUMMARY:Post-Wildfire Recovery Through the Principles of Engineering With Nature
DESCRIPTION:The Santa Clara Canyon in northern New Mexico suffered near total scorching during the Las Conchas Wildfire\, a burn which drastically changed the environment and sediment stability of the canyon. After the fire\, a 1% chance rain event exhibited a 400% increase in peak flow conditions when compared to pre-fire conditions due to extreme vegetation loss and subsequent soil instability. Since 2011\, the Santa Clara Pueblo\, Forestry Department has worked with partners to reduce flood hazard in the Pueblo by implementing Engineering with Nature principles: levee improvements\, post-fire debris removal\, integrating fish passage into the dams\, contour felling on steep slopes\, and constructing log and boulder structures to stabilize drainages and mitigate sediment transport and deposition. Managing wildfire recovery efforts by applying Engineering With Nature-Natural and Nature-Based Features (EWN-NNBF) principles has the potential to provide a wide range of Flood Risk Management (FRM) benefits to rural and urban settings while increasing co-benefits for the entire watershed. Co-benefits include economic\, social\, archeological\, aesthetic\, recreational and biological functioning habitat enhancements.In this webinar\, the presenter will discuss experiences gained and lessons learned that can be transferred to other areas within the Western US that experience wildfires and require FRM guidance on wildfire recovery methods. \nRegister here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYocuCprDkoE9xKWlMJ19HXhwBJ8BqBS-hq#/registrationHosted by the Southwest Fire Science Consortium
