Project chemical/x-pdb WildfireSAFE: Real-Time Data to Improve Wildfire Management
by Rhishja Cota — published Oct 27, 2022 — filed under: ,
WildfireSAFE provides an intuitive platform to access fire weather, hazard and behavior information from the Wildland Fire Assessment System (WFAS) for specific incidents. It supports the greater interagency fire community in the planning, response, and recovery phases of wildfire management.

Product Pascal source code Western Fire Chiefs Association (WFCA) Fire Map
by Rhishja Cota — published Nov 02, 2022 — last modified Nov 08, 2022 12:22 PM — filed under: , , , ,
The WFCA Fire Map pulls data from the US Forest Service via National Interagency Fire Center IRWIN feed, and 911 Dispatch data via PulsePoint to track the location of the wildfire as they start and while they’re burning. The WFCA Fire Map is the first map of its kind to pull such data from 911 Dispatch in relevant areas.

Product Overwintering behavior reduces mortality for a terrestrial turtle in forests managed with prescribed fire
by Rhishja Cota — published Nov 08, 2022 — filed under: , , , , , , , , , ,
Using radiotelemetry, we studied overwintering behavior and interactions with fire in a forest-dwelling terrestrial turtle, the Eastern Box Turtle (Terrapene carolina carolina), over an eight-year period at two sites that use prescribed fire in forest management.

Project Haskell source code Outcomes from Delivery of NRCS's WLFW-Bobwhite in Managed Pine Savannahs
by Bridgett Costanzo — published Jun 11, 2019 — last modified Apr 21, 2023 12:35 AM — filed under: , , , , ,
In 2016, the Natural Resources Conservation Service’s Working Lands for Wildlife partnership began funding management activities designed to enhance, restore, and protect bobwhites habitat on private lands. Through the WLFW program, NRCS is able to assist landowners to voluntarily create and maintain bobwhite habitat in order to support the range-wide recovery of the species. In 2018, NRCS entered into an agreement with the University of Georgia to assess habitat outcomes and bobwhite population response to our conservation actions. n collaboration with the University of Georgia, NRCS is now looking to monitor some of these managed lands to help tease out habitat features that promote excellent bobwhite habitat. If possible, additional information (e.g., other forestry management actions employed) may also be collected through interviews with landowners and/or conservation partners.

Project Troff document Assessment of Native Grasses for Forage & Bobwhite Habitat
by Bridgett Costanzo — published Jun 11, 2019 — last modified Apr 21, 2023 12:36 AM — filed under: , , , , ,
The University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture, through its Center for Native Grasslands Management will conduct a study to evaluate the effectiveness of a working lands conservation model for enhancing northern bobwhite and other grasslands wildlife populations. Specifically, we will evaluate native grass forage production within fescue-belt landscapes to determine how effective this strategy is for improved survival and productivity of northern bobwhite and abundance of associated grassland bird species. The study will be conducted in cooperation with partner agencies within the fescue belt.

Project Octet Stream Economic and Production Performance of Native Grasses as Forage in the Fescue Belt
by Bridgett Costanzo — published Jun 11, 2019 — last modified Apr 21, 2023 12:37 AM — filed under: , , , , ,
The primary purpose of developing this literature review and summary was to inform producers about the potential benefits from utilizing warm-season grasses in the Fescue Belt. Effectively, managing forages is not always straightforward for livestock producers. Summarizing the economic and production benefits from using warm-season grasses could help producers make more informed forage management decision and might encourage producers to consider adopting warm-season grasses. Furthermore, this literature review also gathered information about the potential benefits of using native grasslands as forage to the quail population in this region, which could likely result in an economic benefit to the producer from leasing farmland to hunters.

Product American Black Duck Decision Support Tool
by Rhishja Cota — published Nov 09, 2022 — last modified Jul 26, 2023 12:14 PM — filed under: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,
The Atlantic Coast Joint Venture Black Duck Decision Support Tool (DST) helps to identify the exact number of acres to protect, restore or maintain at the small watershed scale. Through this tool, land managers can determine the best way to contribute to achieving black duck goals anywhere on the landscape.
