Oak Woodlands & Forests Fire Consortium Research Briefs by Tab Manager, last updated: Apr 11, 2021 10:52 PM
The Oak Woodlands & Forests Fire Consortium is an exchange for fire science information. Funded by the Joint Fire Science Program, our goal is to increase the availability and consideration of credible fire science information to those making land management decisions.

Consortium of Appalachian Fire Managers & Scientists by Tab Manager, last updated: Apr 11, 2021 10:52 PM
The Consortium of Appalachian Fire Managers & Scientists (CAFMS) is one of 15 knowledge exchange networks supported by the Joint Fire Science Program. Our goal is to promote communication among fire managers and scientists in the Appalachian Mountains region. CAFMS is largely successful because of a strong relationship between the U.S. Forest Service Southern Research Stations and The Nature Conservancy's Fire Learning Network
Joint Fire Science Program Fire Science Exchange Network by Tab Manager, last updated: Apr 11, 2021 10:52 PM
The Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP) Fire Science Exchange Network is a national collaboration of 15 regional fire science exchanges that provides the most relevant, current wildland fire science information to federal, state, local, tribal, and private stakeholders within ecologically similar regions. The network brings fire managers, practitioners, and scientists together to address regional fire management needs and challenges.
Southern Fire Exchange Publications by Tab Manager, last updated: Apr 11, 2021 10:52 PM
The Southern Fire Exchange disseminates fire research results and information through fact sheets, the Fire Lines newsletter, presentations, and research syntheses. The topics covered in SFE products are identified through needs assessments, surveys, and by the SFE Advisory Board. SFE also works with partners to identify critical fire science research needs for the Southern region.
Training by Rosanne Hessmiller, last updated: Apr 09, 2021 02:43 PM
Education and training equips professionals to conduct wildland fire management safely and effectively, and ensures they are up to date on the latest information, research, regulations, and policies. A variety of wildland fire training resources are available from state and federal agencies, the Cooperative Extension Service, universities, and other entities.

Vegetation Management: Cutting and Removal of Woody Plants by Sarah Moss, last updated: Apr 06, 2021 01:25 PM
Methods for the removal of woody vegetation in bog turtle habitat that may vary depending upon the target plant species. Methods include both mechanical or manual techniques.
Vegetation Management: Herbicides by Sarah Moss, last updated: Apr 06, 2021 01:25 PM
Succession of many wetlands from open-canopy fens to closed-canopy swamps contributes to the loss of bog turtle habitat. Reviewed here are the herbicide application methods described in the US Fish and Wildlife Service Biological Opinion 2010.
Glossy buckthorn (Frangula alnus) by Sarah Moss, last updated: Apr 06, 2021 01:17 PM
Glossy buckthorn is a single stem or at times, multiple stem shrub or small tree that can grow up to approximately 20 feet. Leaves are glossy or shiny on top and have a dull green underside. Leaves are also alternate along branches, entire (smooth edges) to obscurely crenulate (leaf edges have small, rounded teeth). Glossy buckthorn is shade-tolerant. However, it frequently invades sunny spots which is why it is seen growing in open fields, along field edges, along roads and paths, and any other areas that are sunny. Photo credit: Elizabeth J.

Multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora) by Sarah Moss, last updated: Apr 06, 2021 01:17 PM
Multiflora rose is a thorny, perennial shrub with arching stems (canes), and leaves divided into five to eleven sharply toothed leaflets. The base of each leaf stalk bears a pair of fringed bracts. Beginning in May or June, clusters of showy, fragrant, white to pink flowers appear, each about an inch across. Small bright red fruits, or rose hips, develop during the summer, becoming leathery, and remain on the plant through the winter. Multiflora rose is extremely prolific and can form impenetrable thickets that exclude native plant species. This exotic rose readily invades open woodlands, forest edges, successional fields, savannas and prairies that have been subjected to land disturbance.
Small carpetgrass (Arthraxon hispidus) by Sarah Moss, last updated: Apr 06, 2021 01:16 PM
Small carpetgrass is also known as hairy joint and/or joint head grass. It is a low-growing, sprawling annual grass. Small carpet grass grows up to one and a half feet in height. Stems root at nodes and have bright green clasping leaves which are often sparsely hairy on the margins. This grass grows in wet areas such as stream banks, shorelines, flood plains and wet meadows. It prefers sunny, moist areas.

Mile-a-minute (Persicaria perfoliata) by Sarah Moss, last updated: Apr 06, 2021 01:15 PM
Mile-a-minute (Persicaria perfoliata) is a trailing vine with barbed stems and triangular leaves. In contrast to other invasive vines, mile-a-minute is an herbaceous annual, meaning it dies each fall and new plants grow from germinating seeds in the spring. Each vine can grow 20 to 30 feet long, forming a dense, tangled blanket of intertwined vines. In the peak growing season, mile-a-minute can put on up to 6 inches of growth a day. Its leaves are distinctly triangular or arrowhead-shaped, 1 to 3 inches wide, vibrant green, and bear many hooked barbs along the underside of the central vein and leaf stem. The dense foliage of this invasive weed blankets and slowly suffocates native vegetation, making it extremely destructive and persistent despite being an annual plant.
Japanese stiltgrass (Microstegium vimineum) by Sarah Moss, last updated: Apr 06, 2021 01:15 PM
Japanese stiltgrass is an annual grass, found in a range of habitats, from wetlands to early successional fields and forested uplands. Japanese stiltgrass alters light and moisture regimes and likely affects seed germination. The most effective control method is to prevent its spread into natural plant communities by avoiding disturbance to the vegetation and soils of these areas.

Information Materials by Rosanne Hessmiller, last updated: Apr 05, 2021 03:05 PM
public)- this is where we can point other professionals and landowners Fact Sheets Priority Areas – need brief narrative on how the priority areas/focus areas were identified nationally and post maps Staff & Landowner Events – need brief narrative on the on-going technology transfer effort via series of workshops, outreach events, etc. (upcoming workshop dates on portal Calendar) NRCS Conservation Practices & Materials Conservation Practices Job Sheets Screening & Ranking Wildlife Habitat Evaluation Guide (WHEG) Other Guidance (Jess-I’d rather keep it simple and just give the list of Practices from the 2 proposals plus any additions since – do we really need this posted here by state since the states can add practices at will? Let Rose know! We need to post these other materials so all the field staff can access – they won’t have private access.) How to sign up!
