dc.description.abstract | Climate change is intensifying wildland fire activity in Alaska, and public lands managers face an increasing demand for fire suppression within a complex mosaic of land jurisdictions, policies, and social and political pressures. We studied how fire management agencies will respond to climatic uncertainty. In interviews with fire managers, we investigated future management options and pathways to needed adaptations in governance. We applied theories of adaptive governance and policy implementation to inform our analysis, both to shed light on current needs in Alaska fire management and to contribute to the broader literature on governance response to climate change. | en_US |
