Land management: Forests, fires and climate
Cathy Whitlock1
Abstract
A new analysis of the effect of climatic variation on forest fires goes back several thousand years. One take-home message is that a one-size-fits-all forest management strategy is, literally, short-sighted.
Seemingly unprecedented events in human lifetimes can be business-as-usual when viewed on longer time-frames. But that's not always recognized.
