This is a great story, and an example of why Cooperative Extension is such a unique asset in this space. We have a mutual commitment to primary research and to communication, but we’re pretty rare in that. So important. @UCsierraforest @lowseverityfire @UCANRpam @ucanr

UCLA scientist @Weather_West wants to keep helping people understand the climate crisis. He just can’t keep doing it for free. I wrote for @latimes about the need to pay scientists — and journalists! — for telling the story of climate change: latimes.com/environment/ne…

“It totally substantiates what we already see on the ground and what we already know to be true, which is that low- to moderate-severity fire begets more of the same,” @lenyaqd, director of @ucanr Fire Network, tells @DanielleVenton @KQEDscience
Sammy Roth@Sammy_Roth

New study finds that beneficial fires -- whether "prescribed" burns ignited on purpose of regular old low-intensity fires on the landscape -- can reduce the risk of high-intensity blazes by 64% for at least six years: kqed.org/science/198523… via @DanielleVenton

Crews just completed the final blast on Copco 2 Dam & removed the remaining concrete from the riverbed! With the dam gone & diversion infrastructure removed, the Klamath River can now flow freely through 1.7 miles of canyon, which had been without water since dam construction 🙌
