The Southern Climate Impacts Planning Program (SCIPP), in collaboration with the USDA Southern Plains Climate Hub and the Redlands Community College, hosted the 2018 Southern Plains Wildfire Forum on February 13, 2018 in Beaver, OK. This meeting focused on the recent wildfire events in 2016 and 2017 in portions of Oklahoma, Kansas, and Texas. The day consisted of both presentations and panel discussions covering topics including common weather conditions associated with wildfire, impacts and recovery perspectives, and management strategies, such as prescribed fire, to reduce future wildfire risk.
