Effects of ownership patterns on cross-boundary wildfires. | LitMetric

Effects of ownership patterns on cross-boundary wildfires.

AI Article Synopsis

  • Understanding how ownership impacts large wildfires is crucial for creating better risk management strategies to protect people, property, and ecosystems.
  • Analyzing wildfire data from the Pacific Northwest (1984-2018), researchers found that certain ownership types burned differently, with managed lands like US Forest Service forests experiencing less fire damage, indicating effective fire protection policies.
  • The study highlights the need for improved collaboration between public and private land management entities, especially since different ownerships have varying fire management goals despite being adjacent to each other.

Article Abstract

Understanding ownership effects on large wildfires is a precursor to the development of risk governance strategies that better protect people and property and restore fire-adapted ecosystems. We analyzed wildfire events in the Pacific Northwest from 1984 to 2018 to explore how area burned responded to ownership, asking whether particular ownerships burned disproportionately more or less, and whether these patterns varied by forest and grass/shrub vegetation types. While many individual fires showed indifference to property lines, taken as a whole, we found patterns of disproportionate burning for both forest and grass/shrub fires. We found that forest fires avoided ownerships with a concentration of highly valued resources-burning less than expected in managed US Forest Service forested lands, private non-industrial, private industrial, and state lands-suggesting the enforcement of strong fire protection policies. US Forest Service wilderness was the only ownership classification that burned more than expected which may result from the management of natural ignitions for resource objectives, its remoteness or both. Results from this study are relevant to inform perspectives on land management among public and private entities, which may share boundaries but not fire management goals, and support effective cross-boundary collaboration and shared stewardship across all-lands.
