Opportunity Information: Apply for A1580090354
The grant opportunity focuses on researching the impact of bark beetle infestations and subsequent fire hazards in conifer forests within the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. As insect and fire activity has surged in the western United States, forest managers face significant challenges. The intensity of bark beetle epidemics has escalated, leading to an increase in large, severe wildfires, a trend exacerbated by climate change. Despite the ecological and economic ramifications of these disturbances, there is limited understanding of how fire risks evolve after bark beetle outbreaks and how certain forest management practices, such as removing dead trees or smaller trees, may mitigate future fire hazards.
This research initiative will build on over 20 years of prior studies in the Greater Yellowstone area, with a specific focus on lodgepole pine forests recently affected by bark beetles and fire. The project will address three key research questions: the differences in fire hazard related to fuel profiles affected by bark beetle outbreaks in lodgepole pine versus Douglas fir forests; the influence of past beetle infestations on the severity of recent fires and their effects on forest recovery; and the effectiveness of various post-beetle fuel treatments in reducing the risk of severe fires in these forest types.Apply for A1580090354
