Grateful for this fellowship opportunity to join others across the NW in learning and doing actionable science for #ClimateAdaptation! Check out my project modeling post-fire forest recovery in western Cascadia here: https://t.co/iCJkaQuxy3
🌲🔥🌊🌱🐟🐝🌼New @NW_CASC-supported #ClimateAdaptation research is underway!
🔎This yr's 11 research fellows are kicking off their projects/cohort training>https://t.co/JsOcGq8hBU
🔎We have a new set of projects on invasives/shrublands/eco transformation>https://t.co/wciLpoIDqo
Latest pub from my dissertation out now in @ESAEcosphere! As #wildfire size distributions shift, we ask how burn severity patterns (& #ecological effects) might differ if an area is burned in many small 🔥 vs few large 🔥.
Great summary by @NW_CASC here: https://t.co/fP5CfOHMPS
“Forest change in a future with more fire”, a StoryMap created by me and @KBraziunas, is now live! In it, we blend audio, video, and photography to tell the story of our research on the effects of more frequent fire in forests of Greater Yellowstone. https://t.co/h98FOfmc9Z
We are happy to announce the release of iLand 2.0! The release is accompanied by a new paper, taking stock of the state of the model after 12 years of continuous development and application. Here is the paper link, https://t.co/7lIxRfr6AK, read on for some highlights below 👇
This week, 17 members of the WA House of Representatives sent a letter to President Cauce urging Admin to reach a "fair contract that reflects the prestige of UW among peer institutions as soon as possible" to avoid the disruption a strike would cause.

Looking for summer fieldwork? Interested in #oldgrowth#forests & #fire#ecology? We are hiring up to 6 PAID field assistants in the #HarveyLab@UW_SEFS@UWEnvironment to help study forests in the Cascade Mtns!🌲🔥⛰️See poster for details & apply here: https://t.co/bFyZ8OYXyH
So excited to share our manuscript "Advice from the Field" based on an Inspire Session from #ESA 2022, with an amazing intersectional group of scientists discussing different angles of field safety and inclusion #DEIJ https://t.co/1qpuGJCm8P
Such a cool set of illustrations on the relationships between some species and fire!

How are forests recovering after recent large+severe wildfires in NW Cascades?
In work led by PhD student @LaughlinMM, we found..
..surprisingly fast, compared to many drier forests in the w US.
+Age of forest pre-fire is important!
Now out in FEM:https://t.co/ylu8YnljAN

Congratulations @wsucase on ratifying an incredible first contract!
✅ 39% base wage increase
✅ lowered healthcare costs
✅ enforceable protections against harassment
✅ immigration support
& much more
All thanks to ASEs' tireless collective action & the power of a strike ✊
@NWFireScience is excited to announce a new synthesis: Indigenous Fire Stewardship For Fire Mgmt & Ecol Restoration In PNW. It's a systemic review of themes in this literature including social, ecol & policy aspects of IFS + a 66-article annotated biblio.

Our prescribed fire and #ClimateChange paper was published today in @CommsEarth, and is directly available via full open access! Full Twitter thread to follow later today. #CAfire#CAwater https://t.co/bvc4xtc7t1
w/↗️#wildfire activity in recent decades, are🔥yrs exceeding the annual amount of area that burned historically?
In fire-dependent forests of US PNW, the answer for most years is “not even close.”

🔥 A new normal? Washington's fire seasons are starting earlier and ending later, wildfire ecologists say. The flames burn more intensely and scorch wider swathes of ground.

A new modeling tool developed by @UW_SEFS and @forestservice can simulate the consequences of extinguishing all wildfires regardless of size or of allowing certain fires to return to uninhabited areas.

Attending #ESA2023@ESA_org this week?
Interested in forests 🌲, wildfires 🔥, & understanding/managing for resilience in a warm and 🔥-prone future?
Check out talks +posters from members of the #HarveyLab@UW_SEFS for some of our research on these topics in the Northwest US!
Thanks Brian!! Grateful for all the support from yourself, our lab, and my committee — stoked to have made it to this stage, and excited to dive deeper into these research directions! 🔥🌲💻
Excellent job +big congrats 2 @JennaEMorris, the newest #HarveyLab@UW_SEFS PhD Candidate, after outstanding PhD proposal+presentation+general exam!
Can't wait for what we learn together RE Fuels/Carbon/Reburns/Tradeoffs w/ our field data+ simulations on #westsidefires projects.
