Webinar: How and why to incorporate partial stand mortality in landscape dynamic models of mixed-severity fire regimes

Webinar: How and why to incorporate partial stand mortality in landscape dynamic models of mixed-severity fire regimes

In this webinar from November 2019, Ceres Barros of the LIM Modelling Team explains the concept of fire severity, describes many of the methods used to study mixed-severity fire regimes, and discusses a question she is addressing with Landscapes in Motion: What is the influence of stand-replacing vs partial mortality fires on post-fire vegetation recovery? She also provides some preliminary results using a subset of her data.

Webinar: Altered fire regimes and reduced montane forest diversity

Webinar: Altered fire regimes and reduced montane forest diversity

This presentation from the Webinar Wednesdays series of the Healthy Landscapes Program (fRI Research) explores the reconstructed fire history of sites within Jasper National Park. Raphael found evidence of mixed-severity fire regimes, and explores how altering these regimes has affected the landscape.
