Simulated differences in rate of spread (A) and reaction intensity (B) between cut and leave (red), cut and remove (blue) and untreated control (green) treatments in sagebrush ecosystems experiencing pinyon and juniper expansion. Field data used in modeling was from the SageSTEP network treatment plots at time 0 (pretreatment) and years 1, 3, 6, and 10 posttreatment. Fire behavior modeling used the Fuel Characteristic Classification System (FCCS) in the Fuel and Fire Tool (FFT) (Prichard et al. 2013). Figure adapted from Williams et al. (2023)
