Hot Spots and Hot Moments in Prescribed Fire Across the Southeast US
May 2 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Description: Prescribed fire is an important land conservation tool to meet ecological, cultural, and public safety objectives across terrestrial ecosystems. While estimates of prescribed burning in the U.S. exceed 11 million acres annually, tracking the extent of prescribed fire is problematic for several reasons and prevents an understanding of spatial and temporal trends in landscape patterns of prescribed fires. The overall purpose of the Southeastern US Prescribed Fire Permit Database is to temporally map and analyze the frequency of prescribed burns throughout the southeast. The database revealed that burning is highly concentrated within the southeast region, presumably reflecting local land ownership categories and associated land management objectives. These analyses provide the first region-wide summary of fine-scale patterns of prescribed fire in the United States.
