Knowledge of past fire regimes associated with mountain big sagebrush-dominated landscapes is inadequate for accurate assessment of current departures from historic conditions. Scientifically-based understanding of the role of fire in big sagebrush ecosystems is particularly critical when managing rangeland that include habitat for sagebrush dependent species such as sage grouse and pygmy rabbits. This project will provide tree-based estimates of fire frequency for mountain big sagebrush from multiple sites located in the southern half of its distribution. Read More...
