How longleaf pine patches shape fire: New research and podcast interview on Fire Ecology Chats

George Jensen, an MS student in our lab, recently led a study published in the journal Fire Ecology exploring how dense patches of regenerating longleaf pine influence fuel structure and fire behavior. We joined Bob Keane on the Fire Ecology Chats podcast to discuss the paper, answer questions, and talk about what these feedbacks mean for forest restoration. Tune in to the episode to hear more about how fire, fuels, and vegetation interact in the longleaf pine ecosystem!
