Approach
Increase resilience through post-fire management.
Tactics
- Consider climate change in post-fire rehabilitation.
- Determine where native seed may be needed for post-fire planting.
- Anticipate greater need for seed sources and propagated plants.
- Experiment with planting native grass species to compete with cheatgrass after fire.
- Increase post-fire monitoring in areas not currently monitored.
