Fire: A
Selected Bibliography
Patrick Diagle
Patrick Daigle is in the Terrestrial Ecosystems Science Section,
Biodiversity Branch, Ministry of Water, Land and Air Protection.
He has a 15-year interest in maintaining BC biodiversity by keeping
fire (a natural ecosystem process) in fire-driven ecosystems.
His current work includes "science acquisition". He
has been reaching out to BC universities to encourage study of
BC biodiversity. In addition, he has regularly gathered biodiversity-related
research to pass along to colleagues.
His background includes working with an array of landscape- and
stand-scale topics under the umbrella of "ecosystem management".
Before joining Biodiversity Branch, he was a research extension
specialist with the Forest Science Program in the Ministry of Forests.
Previously he completed research projects (focused on partial cutting)
for the Ministry of Forests and pre-harvest silvicultural prescriptions
for the US Forest Service.
Presentation Summary: Over the past 30 months
I have been compiling and sharing citations (some with hotlinks)
related to BC biodiversity. Fire, an ecosystem process, plays an
important role in biodiversity. Thus, I've been compiling (and
e-mailing) many citations focused on fire in ecosystems. Themes
in the fire research and management literature include: fire suppression,
restoration, fire effects, post-fire options, social-economic research,
and management applications. Citation sources include journals,
natural resource agencies, and websites. The cited research findings
and applications may help scientists, decision-makers, field practitioners,
and students.
