SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Reflection\, Reset\, and Residue in Wildland Fire Management
DESCRIPTION:IAWF WORKFORCE RESILIENCE IGNITE TALK\nYOU are part of Mission Critical Teams: Reflection\, Reset\, and Residue in Wildland Fire Management\nDecember 8th at 3:00 pm MST\n\nRegister here.\nMission critical teams are small (4-12 agents) integrated groups of indigenously trained and educated experts who leverage tools and technology to resolve rapidly emergent complex adaptive problems in an immersive but constrained (300 seconds or less) temporal environments where the consequence of failure can be a catastrophic loss. These teams are able to consistently innovate as fast\, or faster\, than the evolving problem sets by moving their focus from trying to predict future problem sets to building the capacity of the team to resolve whatever problem set emerges. \nReflection: MCTs are made up of experts like you who hold the requisite skill and solutions but may lack the language to pass that knowledge on to the rest of the team\, such as knowing how to ride a bike\, but being unable to explain it to someone else. Leaders in Wildland Fire need to find the language to pass on their experience and navigate between critical and routine environments. \nReset: Wildland fire is about having one experience after another\, throughout your career.  The question is how do we make meaning of those experiences in such a way that they fuel us\, rather than distract us from the next experience.  Part of this is about taking the time to find purposeful meaning with After Action Reviews which actually influence the story that team members will tell about themselves\, and their team\, after an event. \nResidue: You are not broken. You are not a victim. You are not a survivor. You have chosen the hard path—a path full of extreme experiences\, both good and bad\, which leave memories. These memories\, in turn\, leave a residue within you\, which if processed can serve as the fuel that moves us to wisdom and joy. If unprocessed\, however\, it will begin to build up\, to harden\, until you can no longer move or breathe\, until all you know is pain and sorrow.  MCTI rejects the idea that Operators\, in Medicine\, Fire\, Law Enforcement and Military\, must sacrifice their lives and souls\, in exchange for living a life of service.

SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Boundary spanning features for collective action to reduce wildfire risk
DESCRIPTION:This presentation will share key findings from a recent Joint Fire Science Project\, specifically on:\n1) the multiple types of boundaries in managing wildfire risk\, and the boundary spanning features that can help cross them;\n2) what strategies actors utilized for wildfire risk reduction across five case studies in the West; and\n3) questions and ideas for future research and practice. This work is intended to help wildfire practitioners and managers better understand and address these organizational complexities as they work toward greater collective impact. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Invasive grass-fire feedbacks in Shawnee National Forest
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is brought to you by the Oak Woodlands & Forests Fire Science Consortium and is the first webinar of the Fall Webinar Series  \nThis webinar will be presented by Ron Salemme\, University of Illinois \nRegistration is required (link below)!! \nWebinar title: Invasive grass-fire feedbacks in Shawnee National Forest \nDate/Time: December 14\, 2021 at 1pm central time\nThe Wildlife Society and The Society of American Foresters continuing education credits (1 hour Cat 1) approved \nRegister here: https://umsystem.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwocOippjgqGdMQWd91Tqi1c98nUZndO0Ku\nA unique Zoom Meeting link will be emailed to you. Enter the meeting room beginning at 12:45 pm (central time) on the day of the webinar. \nWebinar Abstract:\nNon-native grass invasions are altering fuels and fire behavior in forests\, with uncertain consequences for tree regeneration and forest dynamics. We examined whether invasion by Microstegium vimineum\, the most widespread invasive grass in the eastern United States\, interacts with prescribed fire to reduce tree regeneration and evaluated how such interactions might influence long-term regeneration dynamics in the Central Hardwoods Region. Using paired invaded and uninvaded plots subjected to fall or spring burning\, we quantified differences in pre-fire juvenile tree regeneration\, fire intensity\, and survival and resprouting rates of naturally established juvenile trees of varying sizes and species. Our results suggest that\, while grass invasion can have varying effects on fire intensity\, it consistently alters forest dynamics by reducing the resilience of tree regeneration to fire. Lengthening the time between prescribed fire applications in grass-invaded forests may be necessary to allow juvenile trees to reach an adequate size to survive burning.
