Global Application of Prescribed Fire
John Weir, J Derek Scasta
Prescribed, controlled or planned burning is the process of planning and applying fire to a predetermined area, under specific environmental conditions, for a desired outcome. Prescribed Fire presents first-hand perspectives on how it is used and viewed around the world, and will enhance understanding and knowledge of its application on a global scale.
Aims to stimulate cross-cultural conversations about how fire should/could/would function in ecosystems with a broad gradient of fire regimes, dependencies, and objectives by providing exemplars from many regions.
