The latest issue of the Longleaf Leader magazine from our partners at the The Longleaf Alliance features the article “Solving the Duff Problem” written by Southern Fire Exchange staff Laurel Kays and David Godwin. The article highlights recent research and management findings that have helped to improve longleaf survival following reintroduction burns on sites with heavy duff loads. The Southern Fire Exchange has partnered with researchers and managers over the past few years to develop new workshops, field tours, presentations and a fact sheet that focus on addressing duff fire management challenges.
