A1 Fire Behavior Analysis
Fire Behavior Analysis Fire activity began to escalate in northern California on June 21, 2008 when a major lightning event affected the Northern California Geographic Coordination Area (North Ops). The July 22, 2008 National Situation Report identified 602 new fires in northern California. Throughout the remainder of June and into July fire activity remained heavy in northern California. The Siskiyou Complex on the Klamath National Forest came under the leadership of a Type II Incident Management Team on June 23, 2008. Between this date and the staffing of the Panther Fire, the forest managed a variety of other large fires including the Gould Fire, No Man‘s Fire and the Bear Wallow Complex. These fires were all located on the Happy Camp/Oak Knoll Ranger District of the forest. Fire danger indices for the Northwest Predictive Services Area (PSA) showed that ERCs were tracking near the 90th percentile most of July, while 1000-hour fuels moistures were above the 10th percentile, but were well below historic averages for this time of year. Figure 1. Energy Release Component and 1000-hour fuel moisture trends for the Northwestern Predictive Services Area. The Northwest PSA is representative of the Panther fire area. Information obtained from the Pocket Card for the western portion of the Klamath National Forest, including the Panther fire area, identified local thresholds for potential increasing fire activity as: Temperature 85°F or greater Relative humidity 20% or less Twenty-foot winds greater than 4mph and One-thousand hour fuel moistures less than 15% The 1000-hour fuel moisture and 20-foot winds exceeded these thresholds on the Panther Fire. -

Final Report: JFSP Project Number 14-3-01-30
Project Title: Fire Effects on a Special Concern Species, the Eastern Box Turtle Final Report: JFSP Project Number 14-3-01-30 Principal Investigator: Dr. Gary J. Roloff, Associate Professor, College of Agriculture and Natural Resources Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, Michigan State University, Room 13 Natural Resources Building, 480 Wilson Road, East Lansing, MI 48824; Email: [email protected] Student Investigator: Ms. Tracy A. Swem, Graduate Research Assistant, College of Agriculture and Natural Resources Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, Michigan State University, Room 13 Natural Resources Building, 480 Wilson Road, East Lansing, MI 48824; Email: [email protected] This research was supported in part by the Joint Fire Science Program. For more information go to www.firescience. I. Abstract Throughout North America, tension often exists between advocates of prescribed fire as an ecosystem restoration tool and herpetologists, primarily because fire effects on rare reptile and amphibian species are poorly understood. Research is needed that informs the implementation of prescribed fire programs in a manner that achieves the burn objectives (e.g., restoration, invasive species control, fuels management) while mitigating potentially negative fire effects on rare animals. The eastern box turtle, Terrapene carolina carolina, is experiencing population declines across much of its range; in Michigan, box turtles are listed as a species of special concern. We found that hatchling eastern box turtles emerged from nest cavities in both fall and the following spring, and tended to remain in the grassland habitats often associated with nest sites. We documented direct mortality on a single hatchling from a prescribed fire through grassland habitat. -

Flame retardants are chemicals which are added to combustible materials to render them more resistant to ignition. They are designed to minimise the risk of a fire starting in case of contact with a small heat source such as a cigarette, candle or an electrical fault. If the flame retarded material or an adjacent material has ignited, the flame retardant will slow down combustion and often prevent the fire from spreading to other items. -
Human Trafficking: a Comparison of National and Nevada Trends
June 2019, CCJP 2019-02 Human Trafficking: A Comparison of National and Nevada Trends By Alexa Bejinariu Introduction Human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery, with millions of victims, especially women and children, reported globally. The International Labour Research suggests that human trafficking is a Organization (ILO, 2014) estimates that criminal global issue with victims being reported in 124 countries around the world (United Nations organizations generate approximately $150 billion from these activities annually. Office on Drugs and Crime [UNODC], 2014). This Research in Brief describes patterns of human Nationally, there have been over 40,000 trafficking in Nevada and compares them with human trafficking cases reported and over national trends. It begins with a definition of human 170,000 human trafficking calls made since trafficking and then it examines the prevalence of 2007. Both of these numbers have increased human trafficking, types of incidents reported, and over time (National Human Trafficking the characteristics of its victims. Human trafficking Resource Center [NHTRC], 2017). prevention strategies enacted by the state of Nevada th are also discussed. Nevada tied for 9 in the nation (with Pennsylvania) for human trafficking cases Definition of Human Trafficking reported in 2017, with 199 cases (NHTRC, 2017). The most common form of trafficking in Both the United States under the Trafficking Victims Nevada is sex trafficking. The proportion of Protection Act (TVPA, 2000), and the United Nations sex trafficking victims in Nevada (89%) is under the Palermo Protocols (United Nations, 2000), higher than the national average (71%). recognize that human trafficking can take many forms, including for sexual or labor exploitation Both the Nevada Legislature and other purposes. -
