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 …

Fire suppression and past selective logging of large trees have fundamentally changed
frequent‐fire‐adapted forests in California. The culmination of these changes produced …

California's cap-and-trade compliance offset market incentivizes forest managers to maintain
elevated carbon stocks. It provides these incentives without enforcing standardized fire …

The escalating climate and wildfire crises have generated worldwide interest in using
proactive forest management (eg forest thinning, prescribed fire, cultural burning) to mitigate …

We used a prescribed fire study to demonstrate the concept of pyrosilviculture, defined here
as (i) using prescribed fire to meet management objectives or (ii) altering nonfire silvicultural …

The decarbonization of the built environment, both in new construction and renovation, is
crucial to mitigate its relevant impact on climate change and achieve the Paris Agreement …

Sierra Nevada mixed-conifer forests have undergone significant changes in structure and
composition and are increasingly vulnerable to altered disturbance regimes and climate …

In recent decades, there has been a significant increase in annual area burned in
California's Sierra Nevada mountains. This rise in fire activity has prompted the need to …

There is a pressing need for well-informed management to reduce wildfire hazard and
restore fire's beneficial ecological role in the Mediterranean-and temperate-climate forests of …

Forest carbon offset protocols reward measurable carbon stocks to adhere to accepted
greenhouse gas (GHG) accounting principles. This focus on measurable stocks threatens …
