| 説明 | Prescribed fire (also called controlled burning) is an important tool that is applied to the landscape in a planned and controlled way. Land management agencies use prescribed fire in a safe and carefully planned manner to help reduce wildfire risk to communities, municipal watersheds and other values, as well as restore natural ecologic processes and functions, and to achieve integrated land-management objectives. The first entry with prescribed fire may be in the form of pile burning to reduce the amount of thinned vegetation on the ground or used when understory or broadcast burning are not an option. The following entry with prescribed fire may involve either an understory or broadcast burn on the land to mimic the natural process. There are many potential goals that can be achieved by using prescribed fire. Here are a few examples:· Reduce surface and ladder fuels that contribute to increased risk of uncharacteristically severe wildfire.· Reduce risk and help to safely protect local communities from wildfire.· Help protect natural resources such as timber and critical habitat.· Promote native species and reduce encroachment of invasive species.· Enhance landscape resiliency and recovery from a wildfire event.· Improve firefighter ability to safely and effectively respond to and suppress wildfire.To learn more about prescribed fire in your area head on over to:blm.gov/z6ld |
