The Hotshot Wake Up
The Hotshot Wake Up@HotshotWake·
The McDougall Creek Fire in Kelowna has jumped Okanagan Lake. #wildfire #canada A State of Emergency has been declared in the British Columbia city. The fire is estimated at nearly 17,000 acres (6,900 hectares) and high winds fueled spot fires that crossed to the East side of the lake. Multiple structures were lost. There is concern today of a wind switch out of the east pushing the fire back into the community. Definitely a day to stay heads up. Thanks to the subscriber that shared this home video. 🙏

I’ve never experienced or imagined a fire season like this, which won’t be over for another month or two. >50% of residents of the enormous Northwest Territories 🇨🇦 are displaced. Canada’s largest northern city Yellowknife evacuated last night. PLEASE take note. #ClimateCrisis

So, this happened. Grant County Sheriff’s office arrests USFS burn boss for “reckless burning” after prescribed burn spills over into private land. Can they do that? Is there any precedent??

First week in the field as a postdoc with the Latimer-Young ecology lab! Revisiting some 20+ year old burns. Surprising amount of #cheatgrass in these severely burned CA conifer forests 🔥

I just saw my old position is open. Statistical consultant with teaching duties, MS level stats, clients primarily in natural resources. jobs.oregonstate.edu/postings/119400 Supporting grad students in their research was my fave thing about this role. #statistics

A key mechanism of resilience to severe #fire in #serotinous (closed cone) #forests is having a cone bank ready to go when fire comes. But how quickly do young post-fire #trees produce enough #cones to recharge the cone bank before the next fire? read on... 1/5
