ENVS 529 - Pyrogeography


Graduate students will explore the spatial and temporal relationships of fire and society as an integral landscape process with an emphasis on the maintenance of North American ecosystems and the threat of wildfire to the built environment. We will assess historic and contemporary implications of fire management and policies, and where appropriate we will compare fire processes and practices from abroad. The course will end with interdisciplinary group projects delving into specific fire issues and developing proposals and solutions. Graduate students are expected to take a lead role in the development of group projects and development of final products.
