SUMMARY:Beyond Wooden Thinking: Getting to the Heartwood of the Matter 
DESCRIPTION:Recreational firewood movement is a major pathway for the spread of invasive forest pests. Both human behavior and firewood characteristics can influence pest transport. Dr. Riggins will discuss the new study titled “Burning questions: how human behaviors and firewood characteristics influence the transport of wood-boring insects” whereby campers were surveyed at MS state parks and firewood was collected for inspection. \n\n\n\nPresentation by: John Riggins\, Associate Professor and Extension Specialist in Forest Health at Oregon State University \n\n\n\nThis presentation will be recorded\, and the link will be posted here once it is complete. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Wildfire Fuel: How Destructive Forest Pests Travel in Firewood
DESCRIPTION:This presentation will explore the significant threat that invasive forest pests\, specifically the Goldspotted Oak Borer (Agrilus auroguttatus or GSOB)\, pose to forest health in Southern California. We will discuss the devastating impact of GSOB on native oak populations\, how its infestation increases wildfire risk\, and how the pest’s spread is accelerated by the unregulated movement of firewood. Drawing from the work of the La Jolla Band of Luiseño Indians\, this talk will cover current management strategies by addressing the need for heat treatment standards\, industry collaboration\, and effective regulations. Ultimately\, it will emphasize the crucial role the public plays in protecting our shared natural and cultural resources. \n\n\n\nPresentation by: Joelene Tamm\, Natural Resources Director for the LA Jolla Band of Luiseño Indians. \n\n\n\nThis presentation will be recorded\, and the link will be posted here once it is complete. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE
