Key lessons and caveats

Abstract

This report originated from a workshop on long-term postfire ecological restoration held in late 2015 at Yosemite National Park, and a second workshop held at the Natural Areas Conference at the University of California-Davis in late 2016. Workshop attendees included ecologists from the U.S. Forest Service Pacific Southwest Region Ecology Program; scientists from the U.S. Forest Service Pacific Southwest Research Station; and national forest specialists from a variety of fields, including silviculture, soils, and hydrology. In this concluding section, the editors highlight some of the key lessons learned from the process of developing this framework document, which represent important topics for thoughtful consideration and further research.
