Return aspects of historical cultural fire regime to reduce vegetation and increase discharge to riverine systems (e.g. reduce fire intolerant...
In season prescribed/cultural burning in strategic geographic areas to create smoke inversion nearest and to cool down warmer river sections...
Expand research/monitoring of climate impacts e.g. key tributaries as cold water refugia, particular species needs including assisted migration.
More aggressive actions including assisted migration should be evaluated.
Expand tribal management authority and program capacity to enable cultural burning and managed wildfire as long term as well as...
Restoration/Implementation of cultural indicators for acute trigger events with temperature extremes (e.g. PG salamander/spring salmon mortality).
Return historic fire intervals, however burning prior to the return of Pleiades may be warranted if elevated levels of mortality...
Enable colder water retention in system, e.g. restoration of meadow systems to maximize ability to maintain water table.
