  • The people and the trees

    Open AccessGregory Russell, Rhiana Jones et al.ARTICLEEcosystems and People2026

    For thousands of years the Washoe people have cultivated a special relationship with the single-leaf pinyon pine. These trees once carpeted the Pine Nut Mountains of the Southern Carson Valley, providing the Washoe with a reliable source of food for countless generations. Today, large expanses of the Pine Nut Mountains have been denuded of pinyon pine, a consequence of high-severity wildfire. In this paper, we explore the impacts high-severity wi…

  • Understanding Perceptions of Climate Change Scenario Planning in United States Public Land Management Agencies

    D J Murphy, Dan Murphy et al.ARTICLESociety & Natural Resources2023Citada por: 3Referências: 1

    As climate change increasingly challenges the capacity of traditional decision-making modalities to contend with mounting complexities and uncertainties, natural resource management agencies have increasingly turned to nontraditional modes of planning and decision-making such as 'futuring. Futuring methods, such as scenarios, have been increasingly utilized around the world. In the US, however, there has been a limited uptake of these tools acros…

  • Working on institutions while planning for forest resilience

    Thomas Timberlake, Courtney Schultz et al.ARTICLEJournal of Environmental Planning…2021

    How do managers reconcile new priorities for responding to ecological change with traditional decision-making processes? We address this question with a focus on the US Forest Service, which is transitioning to managing for resilience, while operating under a mix of both new and decades-old policies. We conducted qualitative case study research on the Kaibab National Forest in Arizona, USA, via interviews and document analysis. In this context, m…

  • Operationalizing Resilience on U.S. National Forestlands

    James Chapin, J Abrams et al.ARTICLESociety & Natural Resources2021Referências: 5

    Social-ecological resilience has been embraced by the United States Forest Service (USFS) as an organizing principle for forest planning and management; however, the extent and depth of its operationalization remain unclear. We conducted a quantitative content analysis of environmental impact statements, evaluating the presence or absence of various elements that indicate “resilience thinking” and “resilience speaking” and analyzing the associati…

  • Rethinking resilience to wildfire

    Open AccessDavid B Mcwethy, Tania Schoennagel et al.ARTICLENature Sustainability2019Citada por: 9Referências: 5

    Record-breaking fire seasons are becoming increasingly common worldwide, and large wildfires are having extraordinary impacts on people and property, despite years of investments to support social–ecological resilience to wildfires. This has prompted new calls for land management and policy reforms as current land and fire management approaches have been unable to effectively respond to the rapid changes in climate and development patterns that s…

  • Engaging youth in public lands monitoring

    Aleksandra N Pitt, Courtney Schultz et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Education Research2019Referências: 8

    The US Forest Service has a long history of youth conservation education. We investigated U.S. Forest Service citizen science programs that involve secondary school students in field collection of monitoring data to understand (1) how the programs integrated science and environmental education and (2) whether these programs advance ecological literacy and environmental stewardship. We conducted semi-structured interviews with the program leads, t…

  • A Multiple Streams Analysis of Institutional Innovation in Forest Watershed Governance

    Open AccessHeidi R Huber‐stearn, Heidi Huber‐Stearns et al.ARTICLEReview of Policy Research2019Citada por: 1Referências: 53

    Increasingly severe wildfires have focused attention on forested watershed vulnerabilities, causing significant changes to policies and governance. We utilized the Multiple Streams Approach (MSA) to understand institutional innovations of federal agency-large water provider partnerships in Colorado to protect watersheds through joint planning and funding. Ambiguous problem definition and focusing events were significant aspects of these partnersh…

  • Adapting wildland fire governance to climate change in Alaska

    Open AccessTait K Rutherford, Courtney A Schultz et al.ARTICLEConservation Ecology2019

    We use concepts drawn from the adaptive governance literature to examine challenges and opportunities for fire management in Alaska, where rising average summer temperatures over the past several decades are associated with statewide increases in wildland fire activity. Alaska's unique interagency fire management structure, rapidly changing climate, and natural resource dependent communities provide a valuable context for study. Our research soug…
