SFE Webinar: Low-Severity Fires Protect Carbon Stores in Global Peatlands
VirtualHost: Southern Fire Exchange, Duke University, University of Florida. Presenter: Neal Flanagan, Ph.D., Duke University Abstract: Severe wildfires can cause smoldering ground fires that oxidize entire carbon stores and threaten peatlands around the globe. However, low‐severity surface fires can physically protect soil organic matter by thermally altering surface carbon chemistry, thus creating a slower cycling […]
Partner Webinar: Optimizing Ecosystem Services from Longleaf Pine: Balancing Carbon Sequestration with Watershed Health
Longleaf pine forest conservation and restoration are critical priorities for protecting threatened and endangered species, and can also benefit landowners interested in improving game habitat. Restoring and managing frequent-fire longleaf pine may also benefit water yield, or the quantity of rainfall that makes it into streams, rivers, and groundwater. This webinar will summarize evidence that fire-managed longleaf pine forests […]
