Effects of mountain pine beetle on fuels and expected fire behavior in lodgepole pine forests, Colorado, USA.
In Colorado and southern Wyoming, mountain pine beetle (MPB) has affected over 1.6 million ha of predominantly lodgepole pine forests, raising concerns about effects of MPB-caused mortality on subsequent wildfire risk and behavior. Using empirical data we modeled potential fire behavior across a gra...
