Central and Southern California, Fire Ecology Annual Report: Calendar Year 2007
Author unknown. Central and Southern California, Fire Ecology Annual Report: Calendar Year 2007
A summary of fire ecology activities and program information for the Park/network including fire effects plot workload, staffing, management objectives and monitoring results, and planning, fire monitoring, communications, and research. Also included are staff accomplishments/areas of focus, future program direction and other optional information (e.g. data analysis graphics or presentations, annual highlights, publications, program challenges, unique solutions to problems, collaboration, photographs of monitoring/fire activities, and suggestions on FFI). Calendar year 2007 was a busy one for the Southern and Central California Fire Ecology and Fire Effects Program. Highlights from the year include a record number of plots completed by the Fire Effects Crew, the completion of several key documents for the Bay Area Network Fire Ecologist, and three wildland fires in the Southern California parks. The Fire Effects Crew spent an unprecedented amount of time travelling during the 2007 season, including six trips to do field work and three fire assignments. The crew was able to complete a large number of plots (190 FMH plots and 90 CBI plots) across six National Park Service units. The plot load was particularly large this year in part because the Fire Effects Crew provided assistance with field work to the Klamath-Cascades network for the third consecutive year.
