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.

SUMMARY:Successfully Bridging the Gap: Eastern US Models of Fire Science and Management Collaboration
DESCRIPTION:Register \nFebruary 15\, 2024\n11:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. ET \nApproved for 1.5 Category 1 CFE’s by the Society of American Foresters. \nLand management programs are frequently confronted with the imperative of incorporating the most advanced scientific knowledge into their decision-making processes along with filling voids in research needed to move along effective management. Nevertheless\, the persistent disparities between the realms of science and management often impede effective collaboration. In this panel\, we will draw inspiration from successful case studies in the eastern United States\, where land managers and scientists have forged pioneering partnerships\, yielding tangible advancements in the field.

SUMMARY:Lunch and Learn: Wildland Fire Mitigation and Management Commission Report
DESCRIPTION:Register \nFriday\, February 23\, 2024\n12:00 – 1:30 Mountain Time (11:00 PT / 1:00 CT / 2:00 ET) \nEvent flyer/post \nFor decades\, the wildland fire crisis has been growing. More severe catastrophic wildfires devastate communities and ecosystems and threaten lives and livelihoods across the country. In response\, the federal Wildland Fire Mitigation and Management Commission came together in 2021 to recommend improvements to how federal agencies manage wildfire across the landscape. \nJoin Neil Chapman\, Wildland Fire Captain with the Flagstaff Fire Department and Commission member\, as he discusses the process\, outcomes\, and next steps following publication of the commission’s report. Learn more and read the report\, with its 148 final recommendations.
