SUMMARY:Louisiana Prescribed Burning Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Prescribed Burning Workshop: Wednesday (8 AM – 4:30 PM)\, Thursday (8 AM – 4:30 PM)\, Friday (8 AM – 12 Noon)\, May 5-7\, Louisiana Ecological Forestry Center (formerly Hodges Garden)\, Florien\, LA 71429. \nThe LA Ecological Forestry Center\, the SW LA Forestry Association\, the LSU AgCenter\, and the LA Department of Agriculture and Forestry (LDAF) will be having a workshop to enable forest landowners to burn their lands safely and legally. Topics will include fuels\, burning techniques\, proper tools\, optimal weather conditions\, smoke management\, liability management\, planning\, fire behavior and more. \nThis training will begin the process of becoming LA Certified Burn Manager. The completion of five prescribed fires and their documentation will complete the process. The cost is $100. Class size is limited to the first 20 applicants. Please make check payable to SW LA Forestry Association\, and send to LSU AgCenter\, PO Box 609\, DeRidder\, LA 70634. For questions\, please call 337-463-7006 or email khawkins@agcenter.lsu.edu

SUMMARY:Satellite Observations and Tools for Fire Risk\, Detection\, and Analysis
DESCRIPTION:Fires are a growing concern\, especially in regions with longer fire seasons\, expanded wildland/urban interfaces\, and severe and frequent droughts. Anthropogenic fires are commonly used to clear grassland and agricultural land prior to the planting season\, and forests are often cleared using fires so the land can be repurposed for other uses. Whether naturally-occurring or anthropogenic\, fires produce a significant change in the structure and reflectance of vegetation and soil properties and atmospheric chemistry. Remote sensing can be used to monitor pre-\, during-\, and post-fire conditions; including weather and climate conditions\, fuel characterization\, fire risk\, smoke detection\, monitoring\, and forecasting\, fire behavior\, and the post-fire landscape. This 6-part\, intermediate training will provide lectures and case studies focused on the use of Earth observations for operational fire monitoring: pre-\, during-\, and post-event. \nMore information and registration here.

SUMMARY:RX-410: Smoke Management Techniques
DESCRIPTION:This course leads students through the ecological and historical role of fire\, characteristics of smoke and the health\, safety and visibility impacts of smoke. Other topics include public relations\, legal requirements\, meteorology\, fuel consumption\, smoke production dispersion\, and operational smoke management strategies. This course is designed to be interactive in nature. It contains a panel discussion\, several exercises designed to facilitate group and class participation and case studies from a variety of fuel types and political challenges. The Pre course work assignment is designed to familiarize students with the NWCG Smoke Management Guide for Prescribed Fire\, PMS 420-2\, and air quality regulations that impact prescribed fire programs. \nThis online version of RX-410 has been produced by an interagency group of smoke professionals. \nFull information and registration here.
