These briefs summarize our research for managers in 1-2 pages and include reference to the paper. They are grouped by topic
Carbon
  • Forest Carbon Sequestration in Fire-Prone Forests
  • Treatment Costs & Benefits in Sierran Mixed-Conifer
  • Treatment Costs & Benefits in Southwestern Ponderosa Pine
  • High-Severity Wildfire Effects on Carbon
  • Fire Management and Climate Change
  • Longleaf Pine Restoration and Carbon 
  • Stabilizing Carbon in Ponderosa Pine Forests
  • 10-year Post-treatment Carbon Dynamics in Sierran Mixed-Conifer
  • Prescribed Burning and Charcoal Carbon Formation
  • Restoring surface fire stabilizes carbon under extreme fire weather
  • Projected climate and wildfire decrease forest carbon storage
  • Treatment optimization reduces carbon loss under projected climate
  • Treatment timing influences carbon stocks and emissions in the Sierra Nevada
  • ​Targeted treatments stabilize forest carbon in a southeastern US forest matrix
  • Second-entry prescribed fire and carbon
  • Data uncertainty and treatment optimization
Regeneration & Reforestation
  • Fire reinforces shrub conversion
