Longleaf Legacy Landscape Viewer by Web Editor, last updated: Jun 24, 2020 03:28 PM: The Longleaf Legacy Landscape Viewer (LLLV) is a Tall Timbers web mapping application showcasing broad potential uses for the Florida Fires database built by Tall Timbers for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. The map viewer provides fire history, species habitat and land cover data generalized to a 10-acre hexgrid covering the tri-state Longleaf Legacy Landscape area. The data is best used at large scales for display and query purposes.

Assessing Liability as an Impediment to Fire Use by Web Editor, last updated: Jun 24, 2020 03:27 PM

Policy and Regulations by Web Editor, last updated: Jun 24, 2020 03:27 PM: Federal fire policy requires that agencies incorporate fire as a critical natural process into their land and resource management plans and activities on a landscape scale and across agency boundaries (NIFC)

Practitioner Information by Web Editor, last updated: Jun 24, 2020 03:27 PM: If you are a prescribed fire practitioner, there is a lot of information you need to know. Luckily, if you work for an agency, much of that information will be provided to you. However, if you are new to fire, or do not work for an agency, you can find much of this information online, or gain experience by working with mentors, other practitioners, or Prescribed Burn Association (PBA) members.

Priority Amphibian and Reptile Conservation Areas (PARCAs) by abstract, last updated: Jun 15, 2020 12:44 PM: Amphibians and reptiles are experiencing threats throughout North America due to habitat loss and other factors. To help conserve these species, this project will identify Priority Amphibian and Reptile Conservation Areas (PARCAs) that are most vital in sustaining amphibian and reptile populations, taking into account potential future climatic conditions.

Prioritized HUC 12 Watersheds for Road-Stream Crossing Surveys by abstract, last updated: Jun 15, 2020 12:40 PM: An interactive map and Arc GIS query tool that helps prioritizes where to focus survey and restoration efforts for upgrading road-stream crossings (culverts and bridges).

Important Migratory Landbird Stopover Sites by abstract, last updated: Jun 15, 2020 12:32 PM: From warblers to hummingbirds to orioles, dozens of species of landbirds pass through the Northeastern United States during their annual migrations between breeding grounds in the United States and Canada to wintering grounds as far south as South America. In order to survive these long journeys, they need to be able to find areas to stop, rest, and replenish their energy along the way. Based on weather surveillance data and field surveys, this report and accompanying spatial data identify stopover sites across the region that are important for sustaining migratory landbird populations, offering guidance for resource managers to focus conservation efforts.
