Burning Under Young Eucalypts Field Guide

‘Burning under young eucalypts: a guide for prescribed burning and post-burn assessment’ was written by PhD scholar Phil Lacy (UNSW). The guide was developed from a study that characterised fuels, described fire behaviour and determined the effect of low to moderate intensity fire on young eucalypt trees. Data was collected between 2005-2007 over six sites, two species and three age classes in Northern NSW.

Agency involvement in the development of the field guide included Country Fire Authority – VIC, Department of Environment and Conservation –WA and Forests NSW.
