Bob Martin has passed away
Professor Emeritus Robert (Bob) Martin passed away last Saturday.
Bob joined the UC Berkeley faculty in 1982, having previously been a
member of the faculty of the University of Washington and Virginia
Polytechnic State University as well a Project Leader at the US Forest
Service’s Pacific Northwest Experiment Station and a researcher at their
Southern Fire Laboratory in Macon, Georgia. He was an outstanding
member of the fire science community, a dedicated teacher, and a caring
graduate student mentor.
Bob and Pat’s affection for Berkeley led them to establish the Robert and
Patricia Martin Graduate Student Endowment in Wildland Fire Research.
If you would like to join in making a donation to this fund in remembrance
of Bob, you can do so at:

To send your regards to Pat, you can write to her at 3597 Campus View
Drive, Grants Pass, OR 97527-9146.

Source: lessons learned center, phoenix, Arizona
Year: 2013
Keywords: prescribed burning escape
Abstract: On Wednesday April 3, 2013, the Pasture 3B prescribed fire was
implemented. After several hours of operations, at 1352, a slop-over on the east
flank was reported. At the time of discovery, the slop-over (ultimately the
escape) was found moving past the east containment line and had already
burned approximately one tenth of an acre into the tall grass. This slop-over and
escape coincided with the passage of a cold front and an increase in wind speed
within the unit.

Abstract: Repeated burning in a short return period (< 3-5 years) may
significantly contribute to land degradation in Mediterranean countries. We
apply logistic regression analysis to model spatial relationships between
reburning and site (topographic) and landscape-level factors (land use pattern);
forest areas burned twice at least between 2006 and 2009 in the Italian
18
peninsula are used as a case study. Few landscape factors prove to be correlated
with the probability of fire recurrence, and the overall logistic regression model
explains 24% of the. . .

Abstract: Pinon-juniper woodlands have expanded into big sagebrush steppe of

sagebrush steppe recovery following fire on mid-successional and late

recovery after fire has greater likelihood of success in mid-successional
woodlands than in late successional woodlands...

Abstract: Restoration practices incorporating timber harvest (e. g. to remove

wood debris that is piled and burned for fuel reduction. Slash pile burns are
common in longleaf pine ecosystem restoration that involves hardwood removal
before reintroduction of frequent prescribed fire.
