Frontiers | A Disrupted Historical Fire Regime in Central British Columbia

Department of Forest and Conservation Sciences, Faculty of Forestry, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada In the 2017 and 2018, 2.55 million hectares burned across British Columbia, Canada, including unanticipated large and high-severity fires in many dry forests. To transform forest and fire management to achieve resilience to future megafires requires improved understanding historical fire frequency, severity, and spatial patterns. Our dendroecological reconstructions of 35 plots in a 161-hectare study area in a dry Douglas-fir forest revealed historical fires that burned at a wide range of frequencies and severities at both the plot- and study-area scales. The 23 fires between 1619 and 1943 burned at intervals of 10–30 years, primarily at low- to moderate-severity that scarred trees but generated few cohorts. In contrast, current fire-free intervals of 70–180 years exceed historical maximum intervals. Of the six widespread fires from 1790 to 1905, the 1863 fi

Prince George Free Press » Ministry releases beetle-wood guidelines

Restrictions on transporting and milling wood contaminated with the mountain pine beetle have been relaxed this summer in an effort to catch up with an infestation that has a 428,000 hectare head start. Guidelines for summer hauling and milling were released last week by the forests ministry’s entomologist, Robert Hodgkinson, giving licensees a longer window for hauling and processing the infected wood by removing a six to seven-week shutdown that normally occurred during the beetle’s flight. Instead, licensees will be responsible for taking precautions to minimize the chance of beetles being spread by hauling and milling. “The guidelines are designed to allow licensees to monitor beetle development and weather and if the beetles aren’t developed or the weather is cool they can continue to haul and mill during a period when they’d normally have to shut down,” said Hodgkinson.
