- W2170862022 abstract "Over the millennia, fire has influenced the structure and function of most forested ecosystems and, consequently, most spotted owl habitat in California. Fire is a force that we must understand and attempt to deal with--as a shaper of ecosystems, as a tool, and as a potential destroyer of habitat-if we are to manage intelligently for the California spotted owl. In this chapter we discuss some fire management considerations related to protecting and possibly enhancing owl habitat. We concentrate on Sierran mixed-conifer forests--the most important and extensive habitat type statewide for the spotted owl, and on live oak/bigcone Douglas-fir forests--one of the most important habitat types in southern California (table 1B). We include brief discussions of three additional types-Sierran red fir and southern California mixed-conifer and riparian/hardwood. Sierran Mixed-Conifer Sierran mixed-conifer forests contain an estimated 62 percent of all California spotted owl sites in California (table 1B). They are characterized by mixtures of white fir, ponderosa pine, sugar pine, incense-cedar, black oak, Douglas-fir, and giant sequoia. The forest type occurs throughout middle elevations of the Sierra Nevada (Tappeiner 1980; table 1B). An appreciation of the concept of fire regimes is helpful in understanding the role of fire in mixed-conifer forests. A fire regime is an expression of the frequency, severity, and extent of fires occurring in an area (Agee 1990). It is a function of the frequency with which fuels are dry and continuous enough to carry fire at a time when ignition sources are available, and thus is strongly related to climate. In general, the longer the fire -free interval, the more severe the fire that follows, because more fuels have accumulated in the interim. Prior to European settlement in the mid-1800s, Sierran mixed-conifer forests were characterized by a short-interval, low- to moderate-severity fire regime. As a result of human activities since the mid-1800s (Chapter 11), including a policy of fire suppression initiated soon after the beginning of the twentieth century, this fire regime has been changed to one of less frequent but substantially more severe fires." @default.
