SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Southeast Climate Monthly Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The Southeast Climate monthly webinar series is held on the 2nd Tuesday of each month at 10:00 am ET. This series is hosted by the Southeast Regional Climate Center\, in partnership with the National Integrated Drought Information System (NIDIS) and the NOAA National Weather Service. These webinars will provide the region with timely information on current and developing climate conditions such as drought\, floods and tropical storms\, as well as climatic events like El Niño and La Niña. Speakers may also discuss the impacts of these conditions on topics such as agriculture production\, water resources\, wildfires and ecosystems. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Science in Practice: From the Mountains to the Coast: Fire Effects on the Soils of the South
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Mac Callaham\, SRS Research Ecologist\nWednesday\, November 17\, 2021  •  9:00—9:30 a.m. ET\nYou can connect to the webinar through Microsoft Teams. \nSome key messages from this webinar: \n\nFor most of the last 10\,000 years\, the majority of the land area in the Southeastern US experienced frequent fires\, which influenced forest composition and soil functions.\nDuring the most recent 100-200 years\, fire has been excluded from a large portion of the landscape\, with associated changes to forests and soils.\nWhat happens when fires return to ecosystems that haven’t burned for long periods of time? What are the consequences for soil processes? This presentation will present results from research on these questions in the Appalachian Mountains\, the Southern Piedmont\, and the Coastal Plain.\n\nThe Science in Practice webinar series is comprised of 30 minute sessions that summarize recent research with a focus on practical take-aways for land managers and practitioners. \nView past Science in Practice webinars here.

SUMMARY:SFE Webinar: Exploring Spatial Scale in Prescribed Fire Regimes with Examples from the Southeast
DESCRIPTION:  \nSFE Webinar: Exploring Spatial Scale in Prescribed Fire Regimes with Examples from the Southeast \nDescription: Land managers often incorporate ecological principles into their planned fire regimes. One ecological principle that may affect the conservation outcome of prescribed fires is that ecological interactions are often spatial scale-dependent. While this principle is well researched in ecology\, our review of the fire ecology literature indicated it is rarely studied in this context. Moreover\, we analyzed trends in the size of prescribed fires over the past few decades to reveal that they tend to be larger than unsuppressed lightning ignited fires. We don’t know for sure if or how mismatches in the spatial scale of fire may impact wildlife and plants but we used previous literature from the southeastern United States to highlight some important interactions that may be fire spatial-scale dependent. Our series of analyses indicates that additional research focused on understanding spatial scale dependent patterns are needed to inform management which often occurs at larger scales than the research informing it. \nSpeaker: David Mason\, PhD Student\, Department of Wildlife Ecology and Conservation\, University of Florida \nWebinar Registration Link: https://ufl.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_MnVeZNiVTOSAn3NmA1gJuA \nWebinar Partners: The Southern Fire Exchange\, NC State University\, and the University of Florida. \nWebinar Target Audience: Natural Resource Managers\, Park Rangers\, Researchers\, Public Information Officers\, Outreach Specialists\, Cooperative Extension Agents

SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Don't Let Perfection Be the Enemy of Good – Lessons from the Longleaf Pine Savanna Restoration
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Friday\, November 19 at 11:30 AM (EST) for the next LIVE Chestnut Chat: Don’t Let Perfection Be the Enemy of Good – Lessons from Longleaf Pine Savanna Restoration. Presenters Zach Prusak (Tall Timbers Research Station)\, Chris Matson (Florida Park Service)\, and Walt Thomson and Chaz Oliver (The Nature Conservancy) will look at the Longleaf Pine Savanna restoration process as an analogy for American chestnut restoration. While this is not an apples-to-apples comparison\, the Chat will focus on how we can perceive this gigantic undertaking: Are there out-of-the-box perspectives that can be incorporated into the journey towards American chestnut restoration? What roadblocks and bottlenecks were encountered amidst Longleaf Pine Savanna restoration and how were those overcome?

SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Comparing Air Quality and Public Health Impacts from Prescribed Fire and Wildfire Smoke
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation about the recent release of the EPA Report on Comparing Air Quality and Public Health Impacts from Prescribed Fire and Wildfire Smoke. Jason Sacks\, with the Center for Public Health and Environmental Assessment\, Office of Research and Development at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency will be joining us for an overview of the studies that provided the information for this report aimed at helping federal\, state\, local and Tribal partners and fire organizations make risk management decisions to reduce the impacts of wildfire smoke in their communities. \nRegister here.
