Limitations of Current Information and Management Implications Sample Clauses

Limitations of Current Information and Management Implications. The review of natural disturbance literature has revealed knowledge gaps that create limitations to this project. Of the subzones found in the IFPA, one has no known information (SBSmh) while two others have only one study documenting natural disturbances (SBPSdc and SBPSmk). For subzones with greater than one study, the different methodologies used in obtaining results can greatly affect the results reported. Xxxx et al.1 provides a good review of problems associated with the different methods of estimating fire frequency. Additional problems are created by newer fires erasing evidence of past fires. Very large fires can erase most of the information from the landscape as seen in the 1869 and 1922 fires on the Chilcotin Plateau (Xxxxxxx et al, 2002). This results in a shortened period of reliability that is in most cases outside the period of ‘natural’ variability. An example of this problem is the reported 1922-present period of high reliability in the Chilcotin area that includes the 1961-present period of effective fire suppression (Xxxxxxx et al, 2002). This report found that the period 1961-present had no large fires and inclusion of this period significantly increases the estimate of fire cycle. When 1961-present is removed from the analysis, the remaining period of high reliability is only 39 years. A period of 39 years is a small sample when considering the scale of time our forests have evolved in and estimates of variables from such a small time period must be viewed with caution. Furthermore, Xxxx (2000) indicates that burning for agricultural purposes would have occurred during this period and it is certain that this will have influenced the results from this period to some degree. There is some data available on natural disturbance in the period prior to European influence; however, the reliability of the information decreases with the length of time chosen. The temporal and spatial distribution of ecological processes and structures prior to European settlement of North America has been defined as the “Range of Natural Variability” (Xxxx and Xxxxxxx, 2001). However, this period is potentially very large (do we look at the last 500 years, 1 Xxxx, C, X. Xxxxxxxx, and X. Xxxxxx. In prep. Historical variability of natural disturbances in British Columbia: a literature review. Manuscript to be submitted to JEM. 1000 years, or to the last ice age?), and the farther back in time we go the greater the variability in climate/vegetation that has been ...
