Prescribed fire in fire-prone landscapes: tickling the dragon's tail
, 2023 Abstract The important forest understory layer is where leaf and woody litters accumulate, decompose, and provide components that enhance soil fertility and future tree growth; where intact litter provides cover habitat for some faunal species; and where the food chains of some vertebrate wildlife species originate.

Wilderness Fire: The Beauty of Fire-Prone Landscapes
Parks Stewardship ForumThe Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness, a vast 1.3-million-acre expanse in western Montana and eastern Idaho, is a landscape deeply intertwined with fire. Today, this rugged wilderness area has one of the most active fire regimes in the contiguous US, and continues to be a “natural laboratory” for us to understand how fire interacts with forests, especially ...

Rural Labor Supply and Economic Opportunities: Commuting, Migration, Tariffs, and Immigration
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Some rural counties remain dependent on agricultural or manufacturing jobs, but an increasing proportion have diversified economics. Rural counties also differ in their abilities to commute to an urban market characterized by higher wages and labor productivity.
