Every acre tells a story. When we combine our experiences with prescribed fire, we learn which approaches work best in different contexts. This database initiative from FIRE-RES is about pooling our collective knowledge to understand the 'right tool for the right acre.' Whether you're working in grasslands, forests, or shrublands, your observations matter. Having documented outcomes from diverse landscapes helps us all make more informed decisions about when, where, and how to apply prescribed fire. By sharing research and field experiences, we're helping build a resource that connects community knowledge with scientific understanding. This is particularly valuable for: -Learning from successes and challenges across different ecosystems -Understanding local variations in fire effects -Adapting techniques to specific conditions If you've worked with prescribed burns, consider contributing your insights. Each perspective adds to our shared understanding of this essential management tool. #FireScience #PrescribedBurns #LandManagement #GoodFire
Attention researchers! 👀 We’re inviting you to take part in the creation of a public database of well-documented prescribed burns from around the world. Have insights from a site where prescribed burns have been conducted? Your knowledge can make a difference! By sharing your experiences, you’ll help create a go-to resource for understanding prescribed fire impacts—from fuels and vegetation to soil health, wildlife, and air quality. 💡 Who Should Participate? Researchers and site managers with data on prescribed burns, especially those with research already conducted or in progress at their sites. ➡️ What’s In It For You? This open-access database will facilitate meta-analyses and collaborations, bringing together diverse perspectives on fire management. ⏱️ Time to Complete: 15-20 minutes Ready to contribute? https://lnkd.in/gYzHRQeA
