Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the ways in which prescribed burning can be used as a range management tool, particularly in the sagebrush and pinyon-juniper communities of the Intermountain region. Historically, fire played an important role in these communities, but its use as a management technique has increased dramatically in recent years. The author discusses the ecological effects of fire, fire weather, fuel interactions, and proper management of areas treated with fire. Benefits of prescribed burning include reduction of woody species, site preparation and the increase of habitat diversity. The author also discusses the direct and indirect effects of fire on vegetation, and how these effects can be leveraged to promote desirable plant communities. By manipulating vegetation through controlled burns, land managers can achieve multiple management objectives simultaneously, which makes prescribed burning a valuable tool for improving the health and productivity of rangelands.
