SUMMARY:Prescribed Fire as a Restoration Tool for Savanna Communities: Rx Fire for Forest Management ​Series
DESCRIPTION:Registration and full series information \nFebruary 7\, 2024\n8:30 – 10 a.m. Central Time\nOnline via Zoom \nJoin Jeb Barzen and Brendan Woodall as they discuss ​Restoring Savanna Communities in Wisconsin with Rx Fire at Ecologically Meaningful Scales \nJeb Barzen will focus on addressing the potential for restoring savanna communities in Wisconsin at ecologically meaningful scales through use of prescribed fire and through expanding social tools such as carbon credits or environmental labels. Most vegetative communities in Wisconsin\, including a variety of savanna communities\, are fire-dependent and the Wisconsin landscape is approximately 85% privately owned. A 10-fold increase in the implementation of prescribed fire is needed and our current capacity to implement those fires is limited by the number of trained people to burn safely and the incentives necessary to allow private landowners to deploy Rx fire sustainably over decades and across broad landscapes to achieve ecologically significant impacts.  ​  ​​ ​​ \nBrendan Woodall will dive into the details on what he does as a Private Lands Biologist through the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and discuss how fire is used as a restoration and management tool in savanna communities on private land. There are many barriers and limitations to actually being able to get fire on the ground safely\, such as socially\, financially\, and logistically. \nThis webinar is part of the Wisconsin Forestry Center’s free webinar series that explores several facets of prescribed fire related to forests and forest management. They invited speakers to provide their perspectives and offer advice on how to advance prescribed fire as a forest management tool.
