Episode 101: Forest cover buffers microclimate and increases fuel moisture in northern conifer forests: a terrestrial laser scanning approach

In this episode of Fire Ecology Chats, Fire Ecology editor Bob Keane speaks with Peter Breigenzer and Jay Wason about using terrestrial lidar (TLS) to better understand how forest cover influences understory temperature, relative humidity, and dead fuel moisture in mesic forests in the north-east US.
