Abstract
The present study demonstrates examples of the western US representing interventions which can reduce the risk of fire with the assistance of the US Forest Service's Forest Vegetation Simulator (FVS) for fuel treatment planning. The treatments are based on the uneven-aged DBQ approach. It is shown that too restrictive management prescriptions can lead to a decline in fire resilience in the long term and thus threaten other forest functions. The simulated stand development can be illustrated using the Stand Visualization System (SVS).
