Prescribed Mosaic Burning in California Chaparral

In fire-prone ecosystems, knowledge of previous fire history and long-term fire regimes is essential to the establishment of ecologically sound fire management. In the Californian chaparral, fire regimes are determined by the rate of fuel accumulation and previous fire history. The evolution of patch mosaics created by fire is a non-random and self-organizing process because the occurrence of f...

Gaseous and particulate emissions from prescribed burning in Georgia.

Prescribed burning is a significant source of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in the southeastern United States. However, limited data exist on the emission characteristics from this source. Various organic and inorganic compounds both in the gas and particle phase were measured in the emissions of prescribed burnings conducted at two pine-dominated forest areas in Georgia. The measurements of ...

Considerations for Prescribed Burning

VI . A . Introduction HAROLD

Cross-impact analysis is only one of the interesting paths being pursued in the exploration of the frontiers of Delphi. In this chapter we consider other significant prospects uncovered in recent research. The problem of "reduction" occurs again and again in Delphi as well as other analysis efforts. How similar are the goals, programs, and objectives? Do these items overlap? Dalkey in his artic...
