Crowds at the Missoula Montana No King protest
A fabric Declaration of Independence with messages from protesters.
A message: Where-ever Law Ends, Tyranny Begins. NO KINGS!
A protest sign, “if you are not angry, you are not paying attention”
No Kings, Missoula Montana
Makes me wonder what the job duties of a flunky actually were?
Or Juniperus deppeana, or (my favorite) Larix occidentalis (pictured)

Tough article that is already getting a lot of commentary from the wildland fire community. This is looking like a pattern from agency leadership--they downplayed smoke exposure over the years and now we find out the same thing happened with PFAS in PPE clothing.

Congratulations! In my experience the transition from research to professor _is_ a transition, but a worthwhile one! Excited to see what you and your lab will do next!

Any survival of larger trees in the treated units?
Good photos of a rather bleak state. It always amazes me how quickly the oaks can resprout.

This is excellent! Thanks!
Any updates on the fire behavior in Teakettle?
My colleague and I were talking about this topic yesterday. There are some good ideas in the article. Financial incentives are effective. Why not provide discounted publication fees to those who have previously reviewed? Something along the lines of a frequent flyer program.
Great opportunity!
EDF is hiring a wildfire scientist to conduct research and help coordinate the science strategy associated with the new FireSat satellite mission 🧪🔥
Huh… I will have to read this…
Consider changing this statement from the future conditional tense to the present tense.
Large ponderosa pine with red needles; delayed mortality four years after a fire

Back from a week of field work to kick off summer data collection. Lots of beauty, as always, but the delayed post-fire mortality mediated by bark beetles in the large ponderosa pines was disheartening.
Great news - we will be searching for a tree physiologist (tenure track) to join the Department of Forest and Conservation Sciences, UBC Forestry, later this year. Stay tuned! (Please share.)
Feel free to point me toward your peer reviewed publication to back up your assertions.
This article misrepresents active management with examples of poor management. Most active management on public lands in the US is focused on maintaining and restoring ecological integrity. Selective logging of large trees is incredibly uncommon nowadays, And prohibited in many areas.
I’m so sorry. The whole situation is just impossible.
Very well stated summary of the history of the United States scientific leadership and of the impact of this administration in a very short time.
Atmospheric CO2 has passed 430 parts per million.
The last time atmospheric CO2 was at 430 ppm was during the ancient Pliocene Era, three to five million years ago, and humans didn’t exist.
