DellaSala, Chief Scientist, Wild Heritage, a project of the Earth Island Institute, Berkeley, CA, United States ; Chad T. Hanson, Research Ecologist and Director, John Muir Project of Earth Island Institute, Berkeley, CA, United States.
Focuses on wildfire as a keystone ecological process that has shaped plant and animal communities for over 400 million years. The book describes the renewal process that follows wildfires in forests and chaparral ecosystems as nature's phoenix by drawing from examples of wildfire effects. In ad...

520 | |a Focuses on wildfire as a keystone ecological process that has shaped plant and animal communities for over 400 million years. The book describes the renewal process that follows wildfires in forests and chaparral ecosystems as nature's phoenix by drawing from examples of wildfire effects. In addition, the book describes management and policies that have contributed to wildfire problems, including climate change and land-use practices incompatible with nature's phoenix and what must happen to get to coexistence with wildfires that are not going away no matter how much we try to suppress or alter fire behavior. | ||
