+ + + Wildland fires, which are natural and essential for many ecosystems, have increased in frequency and size due to longer fire seasons, climate change, and the expanding interface between communities and wild vegetation. Using fire strategically—through prescribed burns and natural ignitions—can mitigate future severe fires that might burn more intensely under hotter, drier conditions. Data-driven decisions and community collaboration guide proactive fire management. With the help of satellite observations, the USDA, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station and NASA research advance proactive strategies for healthier forests, reducing future fire risks. + +
