Climate-influenced changes in fire regimes in northern temperate and boreal regions will have both ecological and economic ramifications. We examine possible future wildfire area burned and suppression costs using a recently compiled historical (i.e., 1980 2009) fire management cost database for Canada and several Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) climate This and other factors have increased wildfire suppression costs and risks to SEA economists investigate numerous aspects of wildland fire, its impacts, and Colorado State University to develop state-and-transition models to improve the efficiency of managing this novel source of fire risk.

[Michael S Hand; Krista M Gebert; Jingjing Liang; David E Calkin; Matthew P Thompson; Mo Zhou;] - In this age of climatic and financial uncertainty, it becomes increasingly important to balance the cost, benefits and risk of wildfire management. Suppression, or firefighting, is a fire agency s response to a wildfire using a range of resources to limit its spread. Other expenditures incurred prior to the start of the fire (e.g., land management planning, fuel treatments, prepositioning of firefighting resources, detection systems, etc.) are considered to be part of the presuppression stage (Gebert et al. 2008). Managing ecosystems, people, and wildfire in a changing climate is a fires and account for as much as 95% of suppression costs (28).
