SUMMARY:Partner Webinar Series: Wildfire: Weather\, Water\, Weeds\, Wildlife
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we seek to better understand wildfire effects on communities and the health of our watersheds! Expert panelists will share recent education efforts\, guidelines\, and research on the physical\, cultural and ecological conditions related to increasing frequency and scale of wildfires in our region.\nThurs. Sept. 16th\, 2021 | 9am-12pm\nThurs. Sept. 30th\, 2021 | 9am-12pm\nThurs. Oct. 14th\, 2021 | 2pm-5:30pm\n\n​Register here. \nSince our symposia after the Griffith Park Fire in 2007 and after the Station Fire in 2009\, Council for Watershed Health (CWH) has sought to continue convenings around local fire preparedness\, defensible space\, environmental impacts\, and the increasing frequency of wildfires in our region. It is our goal to contribute to a shared understanding amongst stakeholders on the watershed issues of the day\, gather lessons learned and disseminate best practices and strategies for healthier watersheds. \nEach of the three webinars will consist of short presentations and moderated panel discussions by leading experts in Wildland Fire Research\, Land Management\, Air Quality\, Water Quality\, Flood Control\, Weeds and Wildlife\, Land Use Planning\, and Utility Services. \nWith this Symposium\, we will: \n\n\nExamine agency/utility wildfire safety\, mitigation measures and resiliency planning for future fire weather \n\n\nLearn about research focused on wildfire effects on water quality (sediment\, contaminants) and water supply in our region and how we can improve our practices \n\n\nDiscuss how forests\, shrublands and rivers are recovering or being impacted by invasive plants and biodiversity loss \n\n\nUnderstand how state and local agencies are preparing and responding to increased threat of wildfire \n\n\n\nWho will attend?\nPlanning and Public Works Professionals\, Water Resources Professionals\, Land Managers Public Health Professionals\, Local Business Leaders\, Civil Engineers\, Regulators\, Land Managers\, Researchers\, Education and Extension Specialists\, Public Health Professionals\, Developers\, Landscape Architects\, Community Based Organizations\, Academics\, Students\, and any and all other interested parties.

SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Wildfire in the Western US: Causes\, Consequences\, & Adaptation
DESCRIPTION:Large fires are becoming more frequent and severe across the western US. Since 1984\, annual burned forest area has increased by about 1\,100%. Lives\, property\, and livelihoods are routinely threatened and burned landscapes can be left ecologically transformed. \nWhat is causing recent trends in fire activity? What will forests of the future look like? How can modeling wildfires and forest response guide adaptation strategies? These are among the questions to be explored. Panelists will also discuss the importance of tailoring fire and forest management to the local context\, considering regionally specific factors like forest type\, environmental conditions\, and the presence of people. \nPanelists will include: forest ecologist Winslow Hansen (Cary Institute)\, fire ecologist Phil Higuera (University of Montana)\, and natural resource sociologist Catrin Edgeley (Northern Arizona University). \nThis event will include time for audience Q&A. Free and open to all. \nRegistration is required.
