Field guide to the Canadian Forest Fire Behavior Prediction (FBP) System, 3rd edition
S.W. Taylor, M.E. Alexander, "Field guide to the Canadian Forest Fire Behavior Prediction (FBP) System, 3rd edition"
English | ISBN: 0660274868 | 2018 | 134 pages | PDF | 30 MB
The Canadian Forest Fire Behavior Prediction (FBP) System is a systematic method for assessing wildland fire behavior potential. This field guide provides a simplified version of the system, presented in tabular format. It was prepared to assist field staff in making first approximations of FBP System outputs when computer-based applications are not available. Quantitative estimates of head fire spread rate, fire intensity, type of fire, and spread distance, elliptical fire area, perimeter, and perimeter growth rate are provided for eighteen fuel types within five broad groupings (coniferous, deciduous, and mixedwood forests, logging slash, and grass), covering most of the major wildland fuel types found in Canada. The FBP System is intended to supplement, not replace, the experience and judgment of fire personnel.

E-BooksFaces in the Forest First Nations Art Created on Living Trees



Faces in the Forest First Nations Art Created on Living Trees
Michael D. Blackstock, "Faces in the Forest: First Nations Art Created on Living Trees"
English | 2001 | pages: 257 | ISBN: 0773522565 | PDF | 22,3 mb
In Faces in the Forest Michael Blackstock, a forester and an artist, takes us into the sacred forest, revealing the mysteries of carvings, paintings, and writings done on living trees by First Nations people. Blackstock details this rare art form through oral histories related by the Elders, blending spiritual and academic perspectives on Native art, cultural geography, and traditional ecological knowledge. Faces in the Forest begins with a review of First Nations cosmology and the historical references to tree art. Blackstock then takes us on a metaphorical journey along the remnants of trading and trapping trails to tree art sites in the Gitxsan, Nisga'a, Tlingit, Carrier, and Dene traditional territories, before concluding with reflections on the function and meaning of tree art, its role within First Nations cosmology, and the need for greater respect for all of our natural resources. This fascinating study of a haunting and little-known cultural phenomenon helps us to see our forests with new eyes.

E-BooksFire Management in the American West Forest Politics and the Rise of Megafires



Fire Management in the American West Forest Politics and the Rise of Megafires
Mark Hudson, "Fire Management in the American West: Forest Politics and the Rise of Megafires"
English | 2011 | ISBN: 1607320886 | EPUB | pages: 256 | 1.1 mb
Most journalists and academics attribute the rise of wildfires in the western United States to the USDA Forest Service's successful fire-elimination policies of the twentieth century. However, in Fire Management in the American West, Mark Hudson argues that although a century of suppression did indeed increase the hazard of wildfire, the responsibility does not lie with the USFS alone. The roots are found in the Forest Service's relationships with other, more powerful elements of society-the timber industry in particular.
