Tending The Fire: Wildfire Risk Management At The Interface, Cody Randolph Evers

Dissertations and Theses

Escalating loss from wildfire in the American West has made clear the need to rethink wildfire risk, including how such risks result from the unique interaction of social and natural dynamics within the wildland urban interface.
