Yet these effects vary considerably across different regions - some communities watch invasive species and hot temperatures ratchet up already smoky summers, while droughts set flame to other areas rarely burned in the past. These changing fire regimes create significant challenges for natural resource managers as they struggle to apply strategies designed for the past to unknown conditions in the future."

They are seeking to: 1) synthesize climate change impacts on fire regimes, management, and response over regional and national scales, 2) explore resulting impacts on fish, wildlife and ecosystems, and 3) develop strategies to help managers adapt to these changes."
