We review science‐based adaptation strategies for western North American (wNA) forests
that include restoring active fire regimes and fostering resilient structure and composition of …

Forest landscapes across western North America (wNA) have experienced extensive
changes over the last two centuries, while climatic warming has become a global reality over …

Wildfires across western North America have increased in number and size over the past
three decades, and this trend will continue in response to further warming. As a …

The destructive wildfires that occurred recently in the western US starkly foreshadow the
possible future of forest ecosystems and human communities in the region. With increases in …

Building resilience to natural disturbances is a key to managing forests for adaptation to
climate change. To date, most climate adaptation guidance has focused on …

Forest restoration guided by historical reference conditions of fire regime, forest structure,
and composition has been increasingly and successfully applied in fire‐adapted forests of …

Implementation of wildfire‐and climate‐adaptation strategies in seasonally dry forests of
western North America is impeded by numerous constraints and uncertainties. After more …

Abstract Background Wildfires in the Pacific Northwest (Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and
western Montana, USA) have been immense in recent years, capturing the attention of …

Post-fire landscapes are the frontline of forest ecosystem change. As such, they represent
opportunities to foster conditions that are better adapted to future climate and wildfires with …

The diverse forest types of the southwestern US are inseparable from fire. Across climate
