Buma publishes on adapting to fire

Published: Feb. 12, 2019

Brian Buma, Assistant Professor of Integrative Biology, recently co-published Integrating subjective and objective dimensions of resilience in fire-prone landscapes in BioScience. Managing and responding to fires is both an ecological and a sociological problem, and requires an integrated look at social-ecological systems in a truly holistic way.  This publication unites traditional disturbance/fire ecologists with sociologists in a team effort to unite the disciplines and provide a way forward for communities who need to adapt to fires in their midst.
