Fire resistance study

Investigating how forest heterogeneity affects wildfire severity by analyzing remote sensing data and GIS analysis

Does heterogeneity in forest structure make a forest resistant to wildfire? That is, does greater heterogeneity decrease wildfire severity when a fire inevitably occurs? A collaborative effort co-authored by: Michael J. Koontz, Malcolm P. North, Chhaya M. Werner, Stephen E. Fick, and Andrew M. Latimer
