[CRYOLIST] Upcoming ACCAP Alaska Climate Webinar (February 3, 2015): The climate has changed, have we? Reflections on 50 years of fire management in Alaska.

Hello All,

I hope 2015 is treating everyone well thus far.  On a different note, we have another exciting webinar scheduled for Tuesday, February 3, 2015 at 10am AK time.  Randi Jandt of the Alaska Fire Science Consortium will present a webinar titled:

The climate has changed, have we? Reflections on 50 years of fire management in Alaska

Randi 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? She 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, & fire regimes in Alaska.

   

Registration and more information available at: The climate has changed, have we? Reflections on 50 years of fire management in Alaska.

Our upcoming webinars are:

March 10, 2015: Icefield-to-ocean linkages across the northern Pacific coastal temperate rainforest ecosystem

Thanks so much for all your help with past webinars.  

Cheers,

Tina
