Forest Science PhD student at CSU. Interested in understanding how the spatial patterns and impacts of natural disturbance are changing in the forested landscapes of the Western U.S.
Lastly we ended with a discussion on fire-dependent species and the importance of and effort in reintroducing fire to the landscape.
