The Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Policy (ACCAP) will host a
webinar titled "The Climate has Changed, Have We? Reflections on 50
Years of Fire Management in Alaska" on Tuesday, 3 February 2015 from
10:00 to 11:00 a.m. AKST. It will be presented by Randi Jandt, Alaska
Fire Science Consortium.
Jandt will talk about the evolution of Alaska firefighting
practices--field and management--over the past 50 years. We are starting
to be aware of the changes in climate and in Alaskan forests: is the
wildfire "problem" the same one we faced a half-century ago? Have our
management approaches and thinking about wildfire changed during that
time? Jandt will combine her background in land and fire management
agencies with input from long-term observers to discuss which changes
might be a response to changing weather, climate, and fire regimes in
Alaska.
