  • Older Forests Used by Northern Spotted Owls Functioned As Re Refugia
    Older forests used by northern spotted owls functioned as re refugia during large wildres, 1987–2017 Damon B Lesmeister ( [email protected] ) USDA Forest Service Pacic Northwest Research Station https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1102-0122 Raymond J. Davis USDA Forest Service Region 6: USDA Forest Service Pacic Northwest Region Stan G. Sovern USDA Forest Service Pacic Northwest Research Station Zhiqiang Yang USDA Forest Service Rocky Mountain Research Station Research Article Keywords: Northern spotted owl, Strix occidentalis caurina, wildre severity, RdNBR, climate change, re refugia Posted Date: March 12th, 2021 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-280175/v1 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/27 Abstract Background The northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) is an Endangered Species Act-listed subspecies that requires forests with old-growth characteristics for nesting. With climate change, large, severe wildres are expected to be more common and an increasing threat to spotted owl persistence. Understanding re severity patterns related to nesting forest can be valuable for forest management that supports conservation and recovery, especially if nesting forest functions as re refugia (i.e., lower re severity than surrounding landscape). We examined the relationship between re severity and nesting forests in 472 large wildres (> 200 ha) that occurred rangewide during 1987–2017. We mapped re severities (unburned-low, moderate, high) within each re using relative difference normalized burn ratios and quantied differences in severity between pre-re nesting forest (edge and interior) and non-nesting forest. We also quantied these relationships within areas of three re regimes (low severity, very frequent; mixed severity, frequent; high severity, infrequent).

    Fire today ManagementVolume 65 • No. 1 • Winter 2005 LLARGEARGE FFIRESIRES OFOF 2002—P2002—PARTART 11 United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service CORRECTIONS ON THIRTYMILE In Fire Management Today volume 62(3), the article “Thirtymile Fire: Fire Behavior and Management Response” by Hutch Brown made some incor- rect statements: • p. 26, col. 1, para. 2: The statement that the fire management officers (FMOs) on Thirtymile “had no recent experience with initial and extend- ed attack” is false. In fact, the FMOs had recent experience on dozens of fires with various initial- and extended-attack resources, including smokejumpers, helirappelers, contractors, and ground resources. Those involved in formulating strategy and tactics on Thirtymile, including the FMOs, incident commander, and hotshot supervisor and foreman, had decades of fireline experience among them. • p. 26, col. 3, para. 3: The statement that engines arriving on the fire drove past the fire crew “[w]ithout checking in with the IC” has been proven to be false. The assigned incident commander remembers that engine 701 did check in at the lunch spot. • p. 29, col. 1, para. 1: The reference to media stories as “independent investigations” is misleading in a journal for the international wildland fire community. Newsprint journalism should not be confused with a formal accident investigation following a tragedy fire. We apologize to readers for the inaccuracies in the article and especially to those who might have been affected by them. Fire Management Today is published by the Forest Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Washington, DC. The Secretary of Agriculture has determined that the publication of this periodical is necessary in the transaction of the pub- lic business required by law of this Department.

Halofsky, David L. Peterson, and Rebecca A. Gravenmier Editors U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station Portland, Oregon General Technical Report PNW-GTR-xxx Month year 2 Abstract Halofsky, Jessica E.; Peterson, David L.; Gravenmier, Rebecca A., eds. 2020. Climate change vulnerability and adaptation in the Columbia River Gorge, Mount Hood National Forest, and Willamette National Forest. Gen. Tech. Rep. PNW-GTR-xxx. Portland, OR: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station. Xxx p. A science-management partnership was developed to identify climate change issues relevant for resource management in Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area, Mount Hood National Forest, and Willamette National Forest (abbreviated as CMW Adaptation Partnership, or CMWAP). This partnership assessed the vulnerability of natural resources to climate change, and developed adaptation options that minimize negative impacts of climate change and facilitate transition of ecosystems and organizations to a warmer climate.
